WHAT A GREAT DISASTER!!! SUPERLATIVE WELCOME RECEIVED BY A PROFFESSIONAL ARMED ROBBER

THE SUPERLATIVE WELCOME RECEIVED BY A PROFFESSIONAL ARMED ROBBER, A CONVICTED AND JAILED THIEF, FORMER GOVERNOR JAMES ONANEFE IBORI OF DELTA STATE, FROM THE SAME PEOPLE HE DEFRAUDED, WHAT A GREAT DISASTER INDEED! 

HMMNNN!!! WHERE IS OUR SENSE OF SHAME AND DECENCY IN THIS COUNTRY?
WHAT IS ACTUALLY WRONG WITH OUR BRAINS?
WHEN SHALL WE WAKE UP FROM SLUMBER?

Good Evening Darling Kwara Compatriots and Fellow Nigerian Citizens.

It is nice to be back here again after our last release which was early hour of this week Wednesday.

The Fantastically Corrupt Chief James Onanefe Ibori, Former Executive Governor of Delta State, who was arrested in Dubai and extradited to United Kingdom to face criminal proceedings for money laundering is now back. 

The man is finally back home, having completed his jail term in far away Britain. During his arrival, as our team began to upload the pictures of the superlative and befitting welcome back from jail, he received from his people, we were at loss!

HMMNNN!!! So, all these people went out there to welcome back a convicted and jailed thief! No wonder, Delta State is grossly underdeveloped when compared with the amount of money in billions acruing to the State as allocation from Federal Government. Delta State being an oil producing State, has an allocation far more when compared to a State like Kwara. However, a journey around various communities within that State, reveals so much poverty, backwardness, deprivation and squalor. James Ibori, via his 8 years rule as Executive Governor of Delta State, contributed immensely to ensuring that Delta State Citizens remain poor, yet people of his State celebrated him on his arrival from Prison he served in United Kingdom!

James Ibori Deported To Nigeria, Arrested By DSS

Former Governor James Onanefe Ibori of Delta State, who was released from prison in the United Kingdom (UK) last December, has arrived in Nigeria after British authorities deported him. 

Mr. Ibori arrived at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja on Saturday morning without the knowledge of most of his associates or friends as his departure from the UK was determined by British authorities, rather than planned by the former governor turned convict himself.

Mr. Ibori arrived in Abuja unheralded, with no friends or family to welcome him at the airport. Instead, officials of the Department of State Service (DSS) picked him up. A DSS official told SaharaReporters that Mr. Ibori was still in their custody and was undergoing interrogation in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital city.

The Southern Kaduna killings By Editorial Board, Guardian Newspaper

Tragic as the horrendous killings of indigenes by so-called herdsmen in the southern part of Kaduna State have been, the indifference and prevarication of state actors at both state and federal levels, who exhibited criminal negligence instead of being proactive in halting the carnage is morally wrong and despicable.Now, fear and distrust reign and a whole race of people is feeling let down by a state in which the people are supposed to have a stake. Nigeria can and should do better.

The poor approach to the crisis was earlier sign-posted by the alleged payment of some ransom to the herdsmen by the Kaduna State government under the leadership of Nasir El-Rufai. Indeed, the Southern Kaduna Peoples Union (SOKAPU) had demanded to know the identity of the Fulani herdsmen to whom ransom was being paid and the amount involved. In response, the government has claimed that it was only implementing aspects of the recommendations made to the previous government of the late Patrick Ibrahim Yakowa by a committee on the same crisis. That committee recommended compensation for cattle killed during the post-2011 election crisis in the same area. Meaning the El-Rufai government’s claim to a solution is actually an exacerbation of the problem.
