Former Delta State governor, Chief Thief James Ibori, has denied that he pleaded guilty to allege corruption charges at a London Court, last Monday.
Chief Ibori, while reacting to reports widely reported in the media on Tuesday, said he never pleaded guilty to corruption charges as they had been withdrawn by the prosecution because they could not be proved.
He said what he pleaded guilty were charges of money laundering adding that “all corruption charges were dropped by the London police for lack of evidence”.
Speaking through Mr Tony Eluemunor, his media assistant, Chief Ibori maintained that he did not plead guilty to corruption charges which were removed, because they could not be proved beyond any reasonable doubt, adding that the police stayed with money laundering charges to be proved by nothing but inference.
So what is the difference between corruption and money laundering. Is corruption not the umbrella for money laundering etc?
Who is deceiving who now?
