James Ibori Gets 13 Years Sentence

Giving his judgement today, Justice Pitts, pitts was quoted to have said, "I recognise that there is another side to the man James Ibori, but he is not the proper person to judge your achievements and failings as a governor, that is up to the people of Delta State."
Ibori had earlier pleaded guilty to charges levelled against him in the UK.
His guilty plea reduced his sentence to 13 years instead of about 24 years he would have served if he had not pleaded guilty to the charges.
