Mike Tyson Backs Suarez After Ivanovic Bite

Mike Tyson Backs Suarez After Ivanovic Bite

Former boxer Mike Tyson has offered his backing to Luis Suarez after the Liverpool forward bit Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic.
Suarez has been fined by his club and is expected to be handed a lengthy suspension following the incident, which took place during the 2-2 draw at Anfield.
Tyson also earned notoriety when he bit Evander Holyfield’s ear during a 1997 bout, and he told the Glenn David radio show in the US that he was confident Suarez would be able to put the controversy behind him.
“I saw this guy on the Twitter thing and thought I would check it out and see what his journey was all about,” Tyson said, having become one of the footballer’s followers on the social networking site.
“You know, he bit somebody, you know. S*** happens, you know what I mean? I’m sure he made amends with his guy. I made amends with Evander, and we go on with our lives.”
Suarez has already said that Ivanovic has accepted his apology over the incident, although there are suggestions that may not be the case.

Man Hacked To Death By Younger Sisters In Cross River


The Police in Calabar, Cross River State has detained two sisters for allegedly hacking their eldest brother, Kokoette Effiom Effiong, to death.
The sisters were alleged to have chopped Kokoette with sticks and machetes in a fight which ensued following disagreement over the sharing of proceeds from the sale of their late father’s land at Akpabuyo.
The gruesome incident happened at the weekend at Ikot Nakanda, a family source said left the deceased with deep machete cuts in the head inflicted by the two sisters which led to his death.
 
“The man had deep cuts in the head and arm inflicted by Idak and Ikwo during a fight in the bush behind our house,” Otop Idebe, Kokoette’s cousin said.
“They claimed that their brother had made so much money from the sale of their father’s land while they were away and so when another parcel was sold they demanded that the money be shared equally among all the surviving children and when their brother objected, they were not happy which led to the fight.”
One of the suspects identified as Idak however said it was her sister that used machete on him.
“On that fateful day, we were told that Kokoete gave the names of three of us, including one of our siblings, Efangha, to a native doctor for money rituals.
“So when he came to our kitchen to cook cocoyam, we warned him not to use our kitchen again because we did not like sharing a kitchen with any man, besides that he sold our father’s land and had the gut to keep the money to himself without giving us our share.”
“Kokoette insisted on using the kitchen and a quarrel ensued and while still exchanging words, Kokoette went to the toilet in the bush behind the compound and Ikwo followed him with a big stick and a machete. After a short while, I heard Kokoette screaming, so I ran to the place to stop them only to see Ikwo using the machete on him.”
In her statement to the police, Ikwo denied her sister’s statement. She said that it was the deceased that trailed her to the bush, where she went to stool and they started a fight.
The suspects were arrested by the police in Ikot Nakanda in Akpabuyo and transferred to the state Criminal Investigation Department (CID), Diamond Hill in Calabar.
Confirming the incident, Cross River State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. John Imoh (DSP) said they would be charged to court after the police had concluded investigation on the matter.
