I Will Make Sure He Sleeps In Jail - Karen Igho

Former BBA winner, Karen Igho will not let the guy who slapped him go
unpunished as she says she's doing everything she can to get justice.


"My team are on this. I've also called my lawyer. I know I have a good
heart but I won't let this go without fighting for justice because he
might do it to someone else. Thank God he didn't shoot me."


What happened was that, Karen Igho was at the Smirnoff party last
Friday to support a friend popularly known as 'Denrele' who hosted
the party, but she got more than she bargained for as she left the
party with a swollen after she got beaten by a security guard.


Karen poured her heart out to followers on Twitter about how 'hurt and
beaten' she was; "Wow I got slapped at a smirnoff party by a security
guard! Is it because I'm a woman?" she tweeted.


"He loaded his gun and put it to my face at the car park. Said he
would shoot me if I didn't give him money. I said I didn't have. He
slapped me!Now my face is swollen and I'm in pain!All I wanted to do
was to go support my friend, Denrele who hosted the event. I feel
abused and hurt. The slap sent me landing on the floor and hitting my
head."


Whatever Karen did or said to the security guard, no one deserves to
be beaten like that, especially not a woman. Karen might have said
some ugly words to the guard which is not unusual of some ladies who
are generally rude to waiters, drivers, guards, but it is
irresponsible of any man to raise his hand at a woman. Only time will
Tell ; can't wait for the drama babe .....

Zenit fans reject black, gay players

The largest fan group of Russian champions Zenit St Petersburg have
demanded the club refrain from buying black and gay players following
turmoil surrounding the acquisition of Brazil striker Hulk.


"We're not racists but we see the absence of black players at Zenit as
an important tradition," Zenit fan club Landscrona said in a letter,
called the "Selection 12 manifesto", posted on its website on Monday.
"It would allow Zenit to maintain the national identity of the club,
which is the symbol of St Petersburg."


Zenit have been the only top club in Russia to have never signed an
African player while the northern city of St Petersburg is known to
have a strong right-wing nationalist influence. The fans said they
want more home-grown or European players in the team.


"We only want players from other brotherly Slav nations, such as
Ukraine and Belarus as well as from the Baltic states and Scandinavia.
We have the same mentality and historical and cultural background as
these nations," the letter said. They also expressed their opposition
to having "sexual minorities" in the team and demanded that each
player would give "101 percent effort" in every match.


Several prominent black players have turned down lucrative offers from
the wealthy club over the past 12 months after receiving death threats
from Zenit fans, local media reported.
A Zenit spokesman said on Monday the club would not comment on the fans' letter.
