No Nigerian Loot With Me – James Ibori

Former Delta State governor, Chief James Ibori, said there is no Nigerian loot with him waiting for collection by the Nigerian government.

Ibori, who is serving a prison term in London, said contrary to the statement credited to the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami that the Federal Government would recover the sum of £6.9 million from him, he said such money does not exist anywhere.

In a statement yesterday by his media officer, Tony Eluemunor, the former Delta governor stated that “there is no Ibori loot anywhere in the world. Such money, whether in British pounds, American dollars or the Nigerian naira just does not exist. This is because the Ibori London trial is not yet over.”

The statement added that it is an incontrovertible fact that the confiscation hearing against Ibori has not started, and remains months away into the future.

“This makes it disappointing that a high official of state such as the Attorney-General may have been misled into believing that an Ibori loot not only exists anywhere, but he even put a figure (6.9 million pounds) to it,” the statement noted.

He expressed surprise that such misleading information was coming less than one week after both foreign and local media reported that the case against Ibori and his associates may be re-tried because Metropolitan Police have been accused of bribery and corruption in the course of their investigations.

The statement added that as at Thursday January 21, hearing in the prosecution was forced to withdraw its case against one of Ibori’s counsel, Mr. Bradesh Gohil.
