All is set for the sentencing of former Delta State governor Chief James Ibori when the court reconvenes at 2:30pm after the defense had concluded its plea for mitigation of sentence.

A letter from a traditional ruler in Delta State acknowledging Ibori’s achievements was also admitted and read in court.

Southwark Court judge, Justice Anthony Pitts, is expected to sentence Ibori when court reconvenes at 2:30pm. Details later.

John Fashanu has the right to his opinion and in my opinion I think he got it wrong this time.
