Music Star Omawumi Throws Caution To The Winds: Beats Up Photo-Journalist



This is really sad news and it does not tell well of a supposedly role model and someone that others look up to. Yes, I am talking about singer Omawumi who is a top star in Nigeria and a brand Ambassador to one of the biggest telecommunications company in Nigeria, Globacom.
 The lady who is known to be fiery and hot tempered, descended on a photo-journalist at an event over the weekend and beat him up for daring to take her photograph. According to the victim, Adekola Bamigbala, he had wanted to take her pictures after the event but without warning, the singer allegedly pounced on him, snatched his big camera and with it, dealt him heavy strikes in the face in quick succession and he ended up with a swollen face.

He said he could not do anything to defend himself because Omawumi’s bodyguards were standing guard waiting to beat him to pulp if he as much as defended himself. Bamigbala, who said he was confused on why she should attack him in such a manner, may consider seeking legal action against her.
