A staunch Arsenal football fan in Iganga District in Eastern Uganda
is looking for a home for his family after he lost his house in a bet
over a game between English clubs Arsenal Football Club and Manchester
United.
Before the English Premier League table toppers Arsenal met with
champions, Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday, Henry Dhabasani
staked his two-roomed house in a bet with Rashid Yiga, that Arsenal
would win the game. On his part, Yiga staked his new Toyota Premio car
and his wife that Manchester United would win.
The two put their stake in writing, with local leaders and fans
witnessing the deed. Dhabasani, married to three wives with five
children, fainted at the end of the match on realizing Arsenal had lost
the game 1–0.
On Monday, several Manchester United fans stormed Dhabasani’s home and threw him and his family out.
