BBA WINNER, KAREN IGHO, STILL HOMELESS

The winner of the 2011 Big Brother Africa, Karen Igho, has disclosed that she has been homeless for more than a year after falling out with her husband, a Czech Republic citizen.

In a video she posted, Igho, called for financial assistance from members of the public to enable her to get back on her feet and fight for her children.

Igho who posted the video on X, formerly Twitter, said, she had been living in a homeless shelter.

The BBA winner who looks gaunt in the video, says, “I want to prove that it is me, and indeed I am homeless. I woke up in my homeless shelter, and I’ve been here for more than one year. I’ve been going up and down from shelter to shelter.”

She thanked Nigerians for the support she had received and urged fans to donate to a GoFundMe account she shared, seeking assistance to secure a place to stay and regain custody of her children.

“Please be very kind in your judgement and comments that you post. If it were not me, I wouldn’t come out.

“I feel kind of embarrassed doing this, but when it comes to my children, I’ll do anything for them,” she said.

The reality TV star, on Tuesday, shared her ordeal, revealing her intention to divorce her estranged husband and fight to regain custody of her children.

Igho married Yaroslav Rakos in 2014 at a private event in Jos, Plateau State. They then relocated to her hubby’s country, the Czech Republic, where she had lived quietly raising children with her husband.

However, it emerged a couple of days ago that the marriage had hit the rocks and Igho has fallen on bad times.

She alleged that her estranged husband is attempting to take her children away by falsely claiming she is mentally unstable.

Her post read, “I’m going through a divorce with my husband; I have been homeless for a year, and I have been hurt sexually and physically, so if anything happens, ask or hold the man who brought me to a country where, and I know no one, he is trying to take children away by saying I’m mentally sick.

“God Almighty bless Nigeria and Africa my heart pray for your daughter of the soil. I have been through so much this past year. Please, Africans, pray for my children and I. In case you don’t hear from me again, know that I have been killed. I’m not sick mentally, and I don’t do drugs.”
