Nigerians serving jail 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.

According to a top government source, former Governor of Delta State, James Ibori, will be part of those that will be repatriated to complete their jail term in Nigeria.

Ibori still has more than six months to stay in prison.

The British government has also 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.

The United Kingdom Minister of Justice, Mr. Jeremy Wright, revealed this when he led the UK team to visit the Minister of Interior to finalise the process of prisoner exchange between the two countries.

He said under the agreement, which he signed, Nigerians in British prisons would be repatriated to complete their jail in the country.

Wright told the minister the importance of the two countries respecting the agreement, saying there is need for the state of prisons in Nigeria to be improved.

Wright, who led a five-man delegation to the ministry, said even though the prisoners were paying for the crimes they might have committed, conditions in detention centres where they were staying should be made humane and accommodating.

He hailed the Federal Government and the Minister of Interior for making it possible for the two countries to finalise the agreement, which would lead to the mutual exchange of prisoners and said efforts would be made to foster the cordial relationship between Nigeria and the United Kingdom.

Ok

OK I don hear. But what will dat 1m pounds do here in nigeria?

That money is huge and should be ensured that it is use for the purpose it is met for.

E kon-sign me

let the UK keep ibori and use another nigerian prisoner to replace him,ibori's continued incarceration in naija will only be a source of problem to the FG,with one moronic group definitely calling for his release with protests

Ibori is coming to his looting mates like Saraki, Metu, Seconder(sic) in Nigerian prisons.

A very good development!

Instead of this government to be negotiating for investors, they are negotiating prisoners. Or is it the money to restructure the prisons that they are interested in?

It's ok as long as there will nt be any vip treatment. BTW, hope his daily feeding allawee will also be N130

this is no good news @ll they shld b left were they are. we already Hv too much problems in this country we don't need more. I still wat happened wen ibori was tried in Nigeria.

Wright, who led a five-man delegation to the
ministry, said even though the prisoners were
paying for the crimes they might have
committed, conditions in detention centres
where they were staying should be made
humane and accommodating.

That's why we need corrupt politicians/officials to feel the mess they created

From heaven to hell.

From frying pan to fire
Any way that is the kind of prison the likes of Ibori deserves.

Rubbish! Just Consider them freemen.

But why no

But why no

If Ibori returns to Nigeria, He will be a free man.

the prison find will be eaten by the police and prisons commission...who gives a shittt about our prisons...

1 million pounds

Choi!! In the voice of mama piss, Ibori's problems continues!!!

He is not getting released anytime soon.. Part 2 of his problems will be produced and directed by the Nigerian govt.!

Mark my words. Ibori would have completed the jail term before ay agreed transfer can take place.The release of IBORI is a major resurgence of hope for the PDP. Bola, Abubakar and other APC fellas should be weary of the fact that Ibori will serve as the catalyst to boost PDP strenght in combating this dictatorial and prejudice APC touts who currently paint themselves as saint while the country's economy is sinking gradually.
PDP should endeavour to rally round Ibori to give him all the neccesary needed to liberate nNigerians from the oppresive hands of the CHANGERS>

I won't be surprised seeing him welcomed at the airport like a king by his people, expect the governor of the state gan at the welcome party. He should be transferred to the prison at kirikiri or the one on water at badagry
