Nigerians serving jail terms in the United Kingdom will soon
be transferred to Nigeria to complete their period, following an
agreement signed 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 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
prisoners would be repatriated to complete their jail terms in their
country.
