Nigerian Senator Captured Kneeling Before Ex-convict, Ibori

The Senator representing Delta South Senatorial District in the Red Chamber of the National Assembly, Senator James Manager, has been captured in a picture on his knees before a former Delta State Governor, Chief Onanefe James Ibori, most likely in his Oghara residence.

The 61-year-old senator who has been representing his constituency since 2003, in the picture, appeared to be begging Ibori, who is an ex-convict.

The Prime Minister of Tuomo Kingdom, High Chief Loyibo had earlier said that it was time for Urhobo and Delta people to give Ijaw people the chance to also produce the governor of the state.

SaharaReporters gathered that Senator Manager is one of the candidates that Ijaw people are planning to push to be the state governor in 2023.

On Monday, July 12th, the National Chairman of Delta Central for 2023, popularly known as DC-23, Chief Ighoyota Amori, predicted victory for the members of the Ibori political family in both the governorship and other elections come 2023.

Amori made this known during a courtesy visit he made along with members of the group to a prominent Ijaw leader, Chief Mike Loyibo, in the Burutu Local Government Area, to solicit the support of the Ijaw for the emergence of an Urhobo 'son' as governor.

Amori disclosed that he had been in politics for long, saying he was the General Overseer of the James Ibori political family. He noted everyone that has become the state governor after Ibori, like Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan and Dr Ifeanyi Okowa are his brothers from the same family.

However, weeks after Amori's comment, Senator Manager was seen on his knees at Ibori's house.

Felimax:


Let my ice for chairman be my problem not yours. So how is Ibori government became your problem after 14 years of his government? i represent an integral part of the Iwere nation if you don't know. Face the government of the day and let Ibori be.

Rugaria:
The way James Ibori has held down Delta State for years without interruptions is unbelievable! No other state in Nigeria has been able to witness this kind of political dictatorship. Not even Lagos. Even when he was in prison, no rancor, no noise, no opposition. From prison in the UK, he kept his cousin as governor. Okowa that is there today prides himself as his protege! Openly too! Billions are seamlessly looted this way as Delta State suffers and yet the many egg heads and technocrats from that state simply keep quiet. It's unbelievable!

seunmsg:




Would you have said the same thing if it was a picture of Tinubu and a senator in Lagos?

You hypocrites don’t rate us at all. You wail daily about Tinubu and give approval to senators kneeling down before a convicted criminal who control Delta state politics.

I’m glad some of us saw through the shenanigans of the anti-Tinubu crew a long time ago. They target Tinubu simply because they hated the south west and nothing else. Their hypocrisy is gradually unraveling. Spits!

WarriAproko:
so u are happy he looted delta state. U are supposed to be handcuffed with him.

Felimax:


I worked in lagos, Alausa-ikeja precisely and i can tell you much of what you don't know about Alausa and the government of lagos state. The last time i checked Tinubu family just claim an estate of about 50 occupant and you all kept mute. When Bullion van was going in and out of his house there was no keyboard to type your nonsense. You want to compare Lagos state and Delta state on what ground please?

Leave Ibori alone. When last did you hear Ibori talking about politics in Delta? When they move the governor's annexe back to Asaba where was your keybaord to type? Face the government of the day please.
