Behold the story of the people,s governor,nigeria we hail the:Ibori: More Revelations About His Past Our Reporter - 15.12.2007 AS Ibori's trial begins, startling revelations have surface about his two convictions in London More facts are now emerging from the UK over the fraudulent life history of James Ibori and his wife, Theresa Nkoyo Ibori (nee Nakanda). Sahara reporters investigators have unearthed never-before-published information about Ibori's criminal past in London in the early 1990s. According to UK court documents obtained by Saharareporters, James Ibori was twice convicted for stealing and dishonest acts by UK courts in 1991 and 1992. In his first trial, his then girlfriend (now wife), Theresa Nakanda, was convicted along with Mr. Ibori on January 25, 1991 at the Isleworth Crown Court in London. In that trial, Theresa Nakanda, who gave her date of birth as January 5th 1968, was convicted on two counts and fined £300 and £450. James Ibori, who, according to court documents, gave his date of birth as August 4th 1962, was also fined in the same amount. At the time of his conviction, Ibori lived in the Middlesex area of London. Ibori (who used "Obori" as his last name) was working as store cashier in London with Wickes, a home improvement chain. The court case charged that Ibori aided his girlfriend, Theresa Nakanda, to steal building materials from the store over a period of time. According to the prosecutors, Ms. Nakanda would come into the store where Ibori was a cashier to "buy" building materials and Ibori, as the cashier, would act as if she had paid for the products by checking her out through his cashier slot. She never paid. Court details revealed that Ibori and his girlfriend carried on their defrauding of Wickes for a long period of time. Unknown to them, security cameras monitored their activities and, sometime in 1991, policemen were called in to arrest both Ibori and Theresa Nakanda. The Isleworth Crown Court convicted them both for stealing. They were let go after paying 300 and 450 pounds each as fines for stealing and dishonest acts. Despite that conviction, Ibori continued his acts of fraud in the UK. In 1992, he was arrested for using an American Express Gold credit card stolen from another person. He was tried at the Clerkenwell Magistrate's Court and convicted for stealing and credit card fraud. Again, the court imposed fines of £300 and £400 respectively as penalty. However, when two citizens of Delta State challenged Ibori's competence to run for governorship by drawing attention to his conviction, the former governor, according to a lawyer who asked not to be named, heavily bribed judges of the Federal Appeals Court as well as justices of the Supreme Court. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
