4 time Olympic Gold Medalist Mo Farah was brought to UK as a child slave

what the fuck

Sir Mo Farah was brought to the UK illegally as a child and forced to work as a domestic servant, he has revealed.

The Olympic star has told the BBC he was given the name Mohamed Farah by those who flew him over from Djibouti. His real name is Hussein Abdi Kahin.

He was flown over from the East African country aged nine by a woman he had never met, and then made to look after another family's children, he says.

"For years I just kept blocking it out," the Team GB athlete says.

"But you can only block it out for so long."
