John Fashanu interrogated by police after they discover illegal gun at his house in Abuja

John Fashanu has been questioned by the police after they found an unlicensed weapon in his house during a police raid. About 20 officers stormed the football star’s 20-room mansion in Abuja, with a search warrant on Saturday May 30th. They seized the gun as well as 5 passports before taking him to the a police station to be questioned.

After almost 6 hours of interrogation, he made a statement before being released from custody.


 Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mirror after the incident, Fashanu, 52, said:
“I was not arrested - I went to the police station voluntarily. I’ll go back tomorrow morning to the police station. I expect to pay a fine. It was an old fashioned firearm. I don’t actually know what model it is - it’s like a stub gun.”
Fashanu, who is preparing to fight a bitter divorce case against his estranged wife Abigail at Nigeria’s High Court, claimed she called the police in revenge for him ending their marriage.

He is now due to return there by Monday.

      Only one man in dis mansion, and living it BIG lik there is no life after dis world...
      I wish him well.

      Happy New Month!

      I pray today marks total turn around in our lives, and point of contact to every household wit God meeting our needs even b4 they arise.

      Change does not necessarily assure progress but progress implacably requires change. Change is inevitable. Change 4d better is a full-time job.

      Change is here in Nigeria, and remember true change begins with a change in our attitude!

      God bless Nigerians!
      God bless our leaders!
      God bless Linda Ikeji, and all LIB reader's!

      Welcome 2d month of June. Shalom!

    Scorned bitter woman. Marriage na by force? No wonder her first husband and other baby daddy's abandoned her. She knew John was a womanizer but still went ahead because of money. Now the money is not forthcoming she is bitter and going paranoid. Madam go and get a career and stop running after rich men .

    Abigail did not cause una misfortune o. Calling her a witch and all sorts without even verifying the accusation shows how stupid and frustrated you all are. Linda, whether you post this or not, I know you read it.

    The man had a firearm and 5 passports in his home. In a civilized country that would indicate criminal activities. But here in this backward semi literate country the conclusion of the youth is that his soon to be ex wife is a witch. Well done.

Tell me, did she say 'fash oya open ur hand lemme whoop u' .......naaaaa I don't buy any of it, d guy obviously is guilty of somtn. Just dunno y libers aren't seeing his game. For his wife, I can't say am wit her, cos no one knows d full story.

    There is nothing wrong with having an unlicenced gun as long as u have proof of how u acquired it. My late father had a licenced gun in the house. I saw the license after his burial but now i have been looking for the licence and cant find it. So if i quarrel with my wife, she will now stupidly go to the police to tell them that there is a gun in my father's house? I will just tell the police to go and ask my father in his grave. Stmchew

    Linda I just want to say that the way you allow frustrated blog readers to insult strangers on this page is not cool at all. I have a blog too and I know you can stop this whole insult mess. If their comments goes unpublished twice or thrice, they'll get the message and stop adding insulting words to their comments. This is the same way they insult commentators whose opinion they disagree with. That's uncalled for. Just 'because you disagree with me does not give you the right to abuse me. Linda are a grown woman, you should be able to tell the difference between personalized insult and opinions.This is not how freedom of speech works. The world is watching us. We already have negative stigmas and bad reputation following our country around the world, to add 'disrespectfulness' to the list will not do us any good. I've said my own.If you like don't post my comment. I still love you and look up to you a great deal. HONESTLY,I do! Stay blessed!

How does his wife snitching on him make his possession of illegal weapon and five different passports less of a crime, eeeeenh libers?
