Leicester City Football Club has launched a lawsuit against a helicopter manufacturer seeking £2.15 billion in damages following the tragic death of the club's chairman, Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, in a helicopter crash in 2018.

The lawsuit, which was filed by the club's owners, alleges that the helicopter manufacturer was responsible for the crash that occurred outside the King Power Stadium, the home of Leicester City Football Club. The incident resulted in the death of Srivaddhanaprabha, a Thai businessman and the founder of King Power International, as well as four other people on board.

The lawsuit claims that the helicopter manufacturer was negligent in the design and manufacture of the helicopter, which led to the crash. The club's owners are seeking £2.15 billion in damages, which they claim is necessary to compensate for the loss of life and the financial impact of the crash on the club.

The incident occurred on October 27, 2018, when Srivaddhanaprabha's helicopter crashed in a car park outside the King Power Stadium after a Premier League match between Leicester City and West Ham United. The crash was widely reported and sparked an outpouring of tributes to Srivaddhanaprabha, who was a highly respected figure in the football world.

The lawsuit is a significant development in the aftermath of the crash, and it is likely to have major implications for the helicopter manufacturing industry. The case is expected to be closely watched by aviation experts and lawyers, and it may lead to changes in the way that helicopters are designed and manufactured in the future.

Leicester City Football Club has not commented publicly on the lawsuit, but it is understood that the club's owners are determined to seek justice for the victims of the crash and to hold the helicopter manufacturer accountable for their actions. The case is expected to be heard in court in the coming months, and it is likely to be a complex and highly contested legal battle.

Vanessa revealed that she was supposed to get married the next day, but she cancelled the wedding due to personal reasons.

Husband's Dream of Infidelity Ends Marriage in Shambles

 BY MIRACLE BENSON 

A Nigerian Catholic priest, Rev. Fr. Angelo Chidi Unegbu, has shared a cautionary tale about a marriage that ended in divorce due to a dream-induced accusation of infidelity. The priest narrated the story in a Facebook post on Thursday, January 9, highlighting the dangers of relying on dreams and prophecies in relationships.

According to Fr. Unegbu, a man had a dream that his wife was carrying a mattress on her head, which his mother interpreted as a sign of the wife's infidelity. The husband then accused his wife of being unfaithful, leading to persistent fights and conflict in the marriage. Despite the wife's denial of the allegations, the husband's suspicions continued to simmer, ultimately causing the marriage to collapse.

Fr. Unegbu used this incident to warn against building relationships or making marital decisions based on dreams, revelations, or prophecies. He argued that such practices often lead to troubled marriages, as they create a foundation of suspicion and mistrust. The priest emphasized that marriage is a human affair, and that spirits do not marry or organize marriage for humans.

In his Facebook post, Fr. Unegbu wrote: "A young man dreamt about his newly married wife carrying a mattress on her head. In the morning, he narrated his dream to his mom, who told him that the meaning of the dream is that his wife is not faithful. The husband insisted that his wife must confess to him. His wife denied the allegation, but the drama had already begun. The drama led to daily quarrels between the young couple, and today, they are divorced."

Fr. Unegbu's story serves as a reminder that relationships should be built on trust, communication, and mutual respect, rather than on dreams or prophecies. He encouraged couples to have their eyes wide open when choosing a partner and to approach marriage with a realistic understanding of its challenges. As he noted, "There is no easy marriage... Marriage is a human affair. Spirits do not marry or organize marriage for humans."
