This may certainly be the greatest humiliation and political extinction of the former governor of Delta State and strongman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), James Onanefe Ibori, as the President Muhammadu Buhari administration have succeeded to have finally signed Mutual Agreement Treaty (MAT) on prisoners’ swap between United Kingdom (UK) Government and Nigeria.

According to the contents of MAT, all Nigerians in various prisons in Britain are to be returned to Nigeria to complete their various jail terms concurrently, while British prisoners in Nigerian prisons are to be relocated to UK to complete their on-going jail terms.

Buhari Signs Agreement with Britain’s Minister of Justice to Repatriate Nigerians Serving Jail Terms

Naija Standard gathered from a top security source in the Presidency (since he is not permitted to speak to the press) that Buhari, a no-nonsense anti-corruption fighter was livid recently when all the financial crimes of Ibori was again brought to his attention in the regular intelligence reports which showed various ways he looted the Delta State treasury as a two-time governor.

Even though Ibori has been serving his 13 year jail term in British prison, when it came to the knowledge of Buhari that the erstwhile PDP ‘untouchable’ is a serial thief, sentenced the third time for theft under questionable circumstance, stealing Delta State money through various fronts and was one of the major financial backbones to PDP in time past, Aso Rock had instructed the Attorney General of Nigeria/Minister of Justice with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to facilitate discussion with UK Ministry of Justice so that Ibori, alongside every other Nigerians serving jail terms in Britain would be returned to Nigeria to complete their jail terms. Remember, Ibori got a 13-year jail term sentence in UK for stealing a whooping sum of $250 million of public funds belonging to Delta State government meant to develop social amenities and give the people good health care system.

Days after that, British Ministry of Justice reportedly told the press that MAT was undertaken by Britain and Nigeria for prisoners’ exchange and transfer. And to make the whole process looks credible, Jeremy Wright, UK Minister of Justice, announced a donation of one million pounds (about N280 million) to assist in the comprehensive reformation of Nigerian prisons.

In the words of Wright: “Nigerians serving jail terms in the United Kingdom will soon be transferred to Nigeria to complete their period, following an agreement signed yesterday between the Federal Government and the UK government. It is the importance of the two countries respecting the agreement, since there is need for the state of prisons in Nigeria to be improved. We have promised to give Nigeria one million pounds (about N280 million) to assist in the comprehensive reformation of Nigerian prisons to ease the stress of the inmates.’

But same security source in Nigeria’s presidency squealed that it it primarily because of high-profile Nigerian prisoners like Ibori that the One Million pounds (N280million) donation was announced, so that the delay tactics of Nigerian contractors, poor construction practices and bureaucratic bottlenecks would compel the Buhari administration to ensure Ibori is moved into the normal, insect-infesting, epidemic-endangering, diseases susceptible and dilapidated Nigerian prisons where the ‘once’ strongman would feel the pain, suffering of Nigerians who witness prisons’ experience as British prison is seeing to be full of luxury.

He said: “A lot of Nigerians don’t know what is happening. They don’t know what is going on in the minds of President Buhari. Quote me, the return of Ibori is his final end, politically. He will be demystified in the eyes of Nigerians as a thief. His name will finally be ruined. He will suffer the pain Nigerians in various prisons normally go through. So you think Ibori would be returned into a refurbished and modern prison inside Nigeria? Never! Buhari would ensure that the process of handling out the prisons’ reform projects would delay towards the twilight of his administration. Before that time, Ibori would have been brought back and put into Nigerian prison. Buhari is determined to cut him to size, so that after his jail term experience, everyone would avoid him like an outcast. Anyone who steals Nigerian money in public offices is Buhari’s enemy. Tough times await Ibori ahead. I can tell you that Ibori has no way of escape the anger of Buhari’s war on corruption. As at today, Buhari administration sees Ibori as serial thief.”

Why Nigerian Government Plans NEVER to Release Radio Biafra Director, Nnamdi Kano to complete his Trial in Britain as a Dual Nationality-Investigation

Investigation by our correspondents showed that the Buhari administration is fully in the know of various human rights violation presently done against Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) as led by their leader, incarcerated Radio Biafra director, Nnamdi Kanu who is being charged for Treason crime by Nigerian government for trying to ‘overthrow the Federal Republic of Nigeria and planning cessation of Biafra out of Nigeria as an Independent Nation.’ Amnesty International, on the forefront exposed series of mass murder cases, killing, torture, arrests and dehumanization carried out by Nigeria’s security operatives; to which Buhari government kept silence.

Fear in Buhari’s administration is, going by our inside security source in Villa: “Buhari is aware Nnamdi Kanu possesses dual Nationality of Nigeria and Britain. He knows how a section of British parliament support Biafra’s demand. He could feel Biafra agitation across the world. The presidency knows if his government mistakenly release Kanu to continue his on-going trial in the open, the whole world would see how his fundamental human rights are violated or coerced to talk, which will eventually lead to further demonstration and breakdown of law and order by Biafra’s supporters. For this reason Aso Rock wants to do his trial in camera devoid of the press. Nigerian presidency is in panic that if Kanu is allowed to face trial in UK, definitely Britain would set him free and assist him in establishing Biafra’s independent nation being Nigeria’s former colonial master.”
