...wats dz Bleep abt bein first to comment??mtchew bro!

Emiru: [b] So, what do we learn from this?

All of you drawing conclusions from arrant presumptions nd assumptions made to 1 or 2 pesins shud undrstnd dah we are all human. The fact dat som1 waz blinded by blood nd luv 4 his locality nt to see d rungs done by their people in power, shouldnt be read dah everybdy are lyk dat. It depends on ur approach, besides we are all criticizing GEJ...buh to be sincere, we all prayed and voted, hoped nd think he is d future of Nigeria's success right??

Now why complaining, life itz all abt lot...when ur trust falls on d wrong pesin, u don't shout nd run ur tommy becos it can't be changed. You jez av to wait patiently nd pray 2 God dah u dnt make dah mistake again. Besides no1 expected dah GEJ wuld be as he prove 2 b now, based on certain conclusions. Hiterto, there are thousands, if not millions out dier dah still love GEJ and think he nid some time to settle down. Others think he is doing something great, while you fink he is a failure right?

As d saying goes, ONE MAN'S GAIN IS ANODA MAN'S LOST..nd it has bin interpreted in many ways.


@topic

When dis guy called Ibori was stealing our money without sympathy, he was being applauded by many and called "SHARP GUY" . Even when d present Oga at d stealing zone in Delta State d oda time, embezled billions nd waz caught, he den quickly adjust himsef saying he waz 2 use dem 4 buses nd oda means of communication (dah waz a divine intervention dough, it waz a good luck on awa side. Thought d management av bin sold awt as at now) . He waz shund and was named "a dullard" becos he waznt as sharp as Ibori. Now the brain, and one of d most intelligent críminals called James_Ibori is in rottin in prison all of u ar trying to show sympathy, when d going was good he didnt stop becos he finkz he can neva be outsmarted. He brought everyone dah waz 2 stand on his way 2 nufin, and u all fink its partiality 2 d Niger Delta bla bla bla. Well we can try an experiment, ur governor shud undergo d same thefery with Ibori and lets see who will get the highest numba of Years in cell! [/b]

guy, your story long oh! Ah aahn, wetin!

The average Nigerian ---born and raised in Nigeria--- is mentally unstable, devoid of thinking critically or seeing anything past Religion or tribe. This character is even worse if the person grew up outside of Western/Midwestern Nigeria.

.Did u say mentally unstable, pls u need to apologise for that careless and unwaranted statement. How can u say ur folks are mentally unstable is it because u probably smuggle urself out of this shore ti become an unwanted second class immigrant somewhere that made ur mouth to be infected wit diarhoea

Don't worry. We will weigh your zeal and patriotism when the burning bush arrives your door step. All and I mean all present and past governors including yours and mine have stolen and are stealing and missappropriating as we speak. Ibori goes to jail, fine. What are you doing about the one stealing from your pocket, doesn't matter.

Abeg free the guy. The average Nigerian is sectional.

They always believe Nigerdeltans should be left alone when they commit graft. Don't mind these people (Nigerdeltans) who think they are victims. I have one of them as friend who used to live with us when we were in Abuja in year 2000. The guy came from River State and was posted to serve in Kebbi. He had no place to live in Kebbi and an Hausa man who happened to be my friends brother took him in into his house in Birnin kebbi to help him. The man is brother to now Senator Atiku Bagudu currently serving. Atiku Bagudu was Abacha's right hand man when it came to hiding money overseas. He lived with the guy for 10 months without any problem. When he came to Abuja, he would be talking about how Hausas are so bad in the way they deprived them the right to rule Nigeria as Nigeria only survive on the money realised from their oil.

Let's fast forward to today. The guy hates Hausa's including the Hausa man who took him in to help him when he was posted to Kebbi as a young medical graduate. The guy does not talk to me anymore because I said on facebook that Jonathan is not performing well as President. This is the same Jonathan that my whole family voted for. I am Yoruba by the way.

so what ? And u think here is d best place to settle with ur friend. SABO!!!

Of course it is. They discriminate against those from the Niger Delta. Simply show up in a UK Court as a Niger Deltan and you are sure to get a more severe sentence than would have been handed to a Yoruba or Hausa Nigerian. It is the same in the USA, France and Germany too. In fact the worldwide discrimination against the Niger Delta is condemnable.

coputa: This ibori's case was a collective collaboration against the niger Delta struggke which he champions....among all the criminals in and outside government,why was he the only one convicted,.....the judiciary in the united kingdom are bias....how many criminals still live in their country,unmolested......

Sophisticated ignorance.

Am presently in Delta state,u need to see the transformation that ibori brought to this place,if ibori conviction justified his acts while in office fine nd gud bt if dis is a case of victimisation then it is nt justice.And where there is no justice peace shld nt be expected.

sir ur claim is fallacious(hasty generalisation), that your ND guy, is an ingrate. I am a nigerdelta man, GEJ dey fall our hand, every body knows this, mediocres will disagree.

ninja4life:
such is d reality in nigeria where people base their judgement on sentiment imagine a graduate not just dat a medical doctor with dat mentality then we have a long way to go in dis country.if u ask him wat gej has done to affect him positively whether in his profession or infrastructural development i'm sure he wont have anything to say,and dis is sad cos with dis mentality we have a long way to go in dis country.

so what has GEJ done for you that i can't hear word out of your pile mouth is it d darkness dat i sleep in every night or d bad road i move on tell me GEJ hand bag

u are a living evidence
what makes u think the yorubas are more enlightened.
Ur thoughts are not beyond tribe.

Baseless superiority complex,u probably got it from the Britons u worship.

Sophisticated ignorance is better than a myopic dunce,that cant see beyond his nose..

slim fit :
I like yoruba people once you are found in a dirty act you loss respect not to even talk about support.

wot of Bankole,Obj,Tinubu(who was awarded d greatest thief of our age by Ribadu)?

I agree with the first sentence only....religious and tribal sentiments are ingrained in a child especially by parents. One would expect that with so many years of education, enlightenment would follow but so many 'graduates' still display this terrible character.

If only Nigeria was a country where religion or tribe was of no consequence, we would be dragging with UAE, singapore et al in terms of economic might...

Nice! I am enjoying the whole thing.

What "victimisation" ? Do you guys think the UK's judiciary, one of the most independent in the world, has nothing better to do than be used by Nigeria's drama queen politicians? For the umpteenth time, Ibori broke the frigging law of the UK !!!! He has to pay for that. Simple.

It is a misconception that the UK did Nigeria's job for her by jailing Ibori. It is important, first and foremost, for fans of Ibori to understand that he broke UK laws and nothing he did for Delta State can mitigate for his criminal activities in the UK. Nigerians should learn to get over themselves. Ibori and his associates, to include a UK registered solicitor, were engaged in a conspiracy of fraud and serious money laundering.

We may not care to punish criminals in Nigeria, hence the general criminalisation of Nigerian society that makes us think some can do as they please, but most nation realise that criminal impunity is most effectively deterred when the consistent message is sent out that offenders will be apprehended and prosecuted. Ibori fell victim to that concept. Nothing more, nothing less.

coputa: This ibori's case was a collective collaboration against the niger Delta struggke which he champions....among all the criminals in and outside government,why was he the only one convicted,.....the judiciary in the united kingdom are bias....how many criminals still live in their country,unmolested......

This is why you people cannot have nice things and instead get MEND terrorists and environmental degradation with its associated health problems. If those in the Niger Delta cannot criticize him, then they're doomed to a repetition. The fact that everyone wasn't convicted at the same time doesn't mean that this one person shouldn't have been convicted.

Expected outcome. Ibori has no legal ground to stand on.

Yes. They will ask "are you from the Nigerian Niger-Delta"? If you are, you'll get a heavy conviction. What a joke.

From the way many of you reason, i think we have a long way to go. We deserve everything we are suffering in the hands of our politicians because of our senses of judgement peasant and pedestrian. The question should be was Ibori guilty of the charges or not and Niger Delta this, yoruba that...... Do you think USA, UK and the other nations you mentioned reason like you who bring ethnicism into everything?

Ayoobscom: This is why Nigeria cannot move forward a thief is caught and jailed it doesn't matter anymore where he hails and some annoying potential thieves are here shouting victimization

Nansense...the mentality of Nigerians is the spring of their woes

thank you very much, the most important thing is that his appeal was rejected , the UK is doing what will never have happened in Nigeria, even the mere fact that he was convicted in the UK is a shame on its own

He preferred UK court judgement to that of Naija! Mayb he felt it would be lighter! Probably by now he would be out of prison if the case was handled in Nigeria. Since he opted for their justice he should put up with whatever he sees there
