That doesn’t seem to add up given that he was prosecuted in the UK during Yar’Adua or Jonathan’s terms which started in 2007 which is 10 years ago…

Below is from Wikipedia:
Arrest in Dubai, extradition to UK Edit
On 13 May 2010, Ibori was arrested in Dubai, United Arab Emirates under Interpol arrest warrants, issued from United Kingdom courts and enacted by the Metropolitan Police.[17][18][19] Ibori was granted bail pending an extradition hearing.[20][21][22] A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police confirmed that the United Kingdom would “seek Mr Ibori’s extradition”.[23]
