'James Ibori is someone like Pablo Escobar' - Mixed reactions trail Ex-Governor's return to Nigeria

The return of Ex Delta governor, James Ibori, who released from a UK prison in December 2016 is causing ripples online. Ibori arrived Nigeria from the United Kingdom a few hours ago and he's already a trending topic on Nigerian social media. While some applaud and congratulate him, others are calling for his re-arrest by EFCC. See more reactions after the cut...

This ex-con escaped from the country while there was a nation-wide manhunt for him. How he is able to walk past immigration at the Abuja Nnamdi Azikiwe International airport and was neither detained for questioning or arrested beats me.And now, we are going to watch painfully, as he is celebrated as a returning hero and kingmaker. What examples or lessons are we setting by this, especially to our younger generation?

No wonder Nigeria continues to "attract" criminals from all over the world", from those Canadian sisters to fake-product specialists from China to that Indian Ponzi Fraudster Guy, we might as well capitalize on it.

Give tax breaks to Criminals to store their money here (The west already do that through tax havens though they generalize and say it's "secret account".)

We would target Criminals from all over the world and provide a safe place to hide their loot right here in Nigeria (Politicians may probably steal the stolen funds like they have done with Abacha and Alamieyeseiya's loot so that might not work o!)

He ought to stand trial in Nigeria, but this is Nigeria, and anything is possible.
This is one of the men that wrecked the Niger-delta, his people were satisfied getting peanuts from him instead of major infrastructures.

Those of you shouting he is a thief, he is a that are sure not from delta state. If not you won't say trash. He is the best governor so far since 1999. He turned delta state around for the better. All the projects the former and current governor ever commissioned were his. Roads, health care, good hospital etc. Show me a governor in Nigeria that did not temper with public funds in Nigeria. If buhari is tempering with public funds, yet life Is good for us, we won't be in this malnourished state that Nigeria is right now.

Word!!
Need 2 go n rewatch the Hit series 'NARCOS' especially the season 2, while still dying 4 the season 3 to hit the Biģ Screen.
Those Niger Delta idiots will always get what they deserve as long as they continue to honour criminals like Edwin Clark n Co who are deeply complicit in plundering the region.
I dey laugh (in Obj's voice).
