Ibori was then completing his second term as governor of Delta state, according to a new book, ‘On a Platter of Gold: How Jonathan Won and Lost Nigeria’, written by Bolaji Abdullahi — who served as a minister under Jonathan from 2011-2014

The book will go on sale nationwide from November 30, 2017 after the launch.
