Karen Igho has been attacked, and she’s fighting back.
The former BBA winner says she was slapped while attending the ‘Smirnoff 3D Disco’ event held on Friday, December 14, 2012, at the Landmark Events centre, Lagos.
The 27-year-old narrated her sordid ordeal on Twitter hours after the show.
Karen says she went to the event to show support for her friend, popular Channel O VJ Denrele Edun, who was hosting, but was hit by a security guard when she refused to give him money.
‘Wow I got slapped at a Smirnoff party, by a security guard!!! is it because I’m a woman?. He loaded his gun and put it to my face at the car park, said he will shoot me if I don’t give him money..I said I didn’t have’ Karen said.
Karen says she fell and hit her head on the ground. ‘Even my father has never slapped me like this and the loading of the gun to shoot me wow am in shock’ she continued.
The Naija FM OAP might be pressing charges, as she says she has already contacted her lawyers.
But who will Karen be suing? An insider close to organizers of the Smirnoff bash says bouncers could not have carried guns, because they are only allowed tasers.
‘If Karen says someone attacked her, she might be telling the truth but it’s not from us because it happened outside the venue. A police officer can’t also do that so it must be a hooligan’, said the insider, who pleaded anonymity.
The event was attended by a host of celebrities with appearances and performances from rappers Ice Prince, Vector, Olamide and Eva.
