**he is no longer the same, as old things have passed away.
**he fast, reads the Bible and praying fervently in his Prison cell. Former Delta State Governor, James Onanefe ibori is now experiencing the
golden truth about the Biblical saying that “whatever a man soweth, that he shall
reap.” Ibori sowed the seed of corruption in his 8-year rule as Delta State
helmsman. He was crafty enough to escape conviction in Nigeria, but the law
caught up with him in far away United Kingdom where he is serving thirteen years
imprisonment. It was alleged that Ibori has become so close to God that he has become a prayer warrior. Now, James Ibori is alleged to be full of regrets for his past misdeeds. He has
also reportedly turned a new leaf. ardent student of the Bible which he now carries
always as a companion.
“Ibori has been visited by the Holy Spirit; he is no longer the same. From the way
he now talks, it seems old things have passed away and all things have become
new. I observed that he said a little prayer when he alighted from the prison van and
when he was standing in the dock. I heard something like God is in control from
him as he walked away from the court. He was really looking very sober, I think
he may have become a born again Christian,” the source said.
The former strong man of Delta politics has now become an avid Bible reader as
he recently told a relative in a message that he has been reading and studying the message of the Bible as well as engaged in fervent prayers in the prisons. “Ibori inferred in a censored message he sent to one of his relatives who
interacted with me that he spent most of his days in detention reading the Bible
and praying fervently. He said he has fasted about four days in prison. He
described his prison cell as being okay but not too comfortable,” our sources
added.
