“I feel abused and hurt” – Karen Igho slapped at Smirnoff party by security guard

Joint winner of Big Brother Africa reality show in 2011, Karen Igho, has revealed how she was physically assaulted by a security man, at a Smirnoff party in Lagos.

Karen, who is now an entrepreneur, model and actress, took to her Twitter page, to give a blow by blow account, of how the man even went ahead to threaten her with a loaded gun, because she refused to give him money.

She also confirmed she would take legal action in the coming days, as she has alerted her lawyers already.

Here are some of the tweets taken off her timeline this morning:
