Photos of Delta state indigenes celebrating James Ibori's release

Some Delta state residents are currently celebrating the release of the state's former governor, James Ibori, from prison.

Ibori was convicted by a UK court in 2012 after he pleaded guilty to money laundering, mismanagement of the state funds and stealing over $250 million while he was governor of Delta state from 1999-2007. See more photos after the cut.
