So Ibori pleaded guilty to save Nigerians the embarrassment? *Yimz*

Lol, that's what Mr. James Ibori's media assistant, Tony Eluemumor, is claiming. According to him:

Ibori pleaded guilty to the 10 count charge of stealing, money laundering and corruption because as an elder statesman and patriotic Nigerian, it was in the best interest of the country that its name gets saved the embarassment of a long court process that’d have had the country’s name bandied for the wrong reasons in a foreign court.

What a dumb excuse...next pls!!!
