Football star John Fashanu has been branded a “ranting woman” by the wife he accused of trying to kill him.
Weeks before a divorce court showdown, the warring couple are exchanging a barrage of insults.
Former England and Wimbledon striker Fashanu, 52, told the Sunday People last week that Abigail Onyekwelu attacked him with a knife, stole thousands of pounds and slept with another woman during their four-year marriage.
But glamorous socialite Abigail, a 48-year-old trained lawyer, hit back: “He’s dubious, fraudulent and ranting like a woman. He brought shame to me every day.”
It could be recalled that UK Tabloid Mirror exclusively reported Fashanu – known in football as “Fash the Bash” for his hardman style – had lodged a divorce petition at Nigeria’s high court in Abuja

Former Gladiators host Fashanu claims that he made a police report about Abigail, who is the mother-in-law of former Nigerian football captain and Everton defender Joseph Yobo.
He said: “My life was at risk. It was terrifying.”
Abigail, whose daughter Adaeze Yobo is a former beauty queen, made furious counter-claims, alleging she found Fash in bed with two women, one of them their maid.
London-born Fashanu played in Wimbledon’s 1988 FA Cup winning “Crazy Gang” side, appeared on I’m A Celebrity and became a major figure in African football.
His brother Justin, Britain’s first openly gay pro footballer, killed himself in 1988.
SHAME!!!
