Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mirror,
Fashanu, 52, said: “I was not arrested - I went
to the police station voluntarily.
“I’ll go back tomorrow morning to the police
station. I expect to pay a fine.
“It was an old fashioned firearm. I don’t
actually know what model it is - it’s like a stub
gun.”
Fashanu, who is preparing to fight a bitter
divorce case against his estranged wife Abigail
at Nigeria’s High Court, claimed she called in
cops in revenge for him ending their marriage.

He added: “She is trying to do anything to get
back at me. They raided my house after she
filed a petition with the police. She needs to
move on.
“The gun should have been licensed. I made a
mistake and I hold my hands up to that.
“I have the five passports because they belong
to young footballers from my academy. It’s no
problem.”
Police agreed to release Fashanu after
detaining his 2014 edition black land cruiser
jeep as surety.
It is understood police raided Fashanu's home
after his estranged wife Abigail filed a
statement accusing him of having an illegal
firearm and a number of young footballers
from his academy also filed complaints
accusing him of stealing their money.

So he was not arrested? But invited? Anyways I have repeatedly told people, no matter how much you are in love with a woman, keep some stuff away from her.

Samson in the bible learned the hard way.

Women are not bad, women by nature are just vindictive.

Your headline is about an individual who is arrested,the story is about the arrestee declining that he was arrested.

The paradox in that is just wonderful! undecided
