28.01.2008

FORMER African women’s 400 metres record holder, Chief Falilat Ogunkoya-Omotayo has expressed confidence that disgraced American female sprinter, Marion Jones would bounce back from her travails and put her life back on track.

Ogunkoya-Omotayo said in a chat with brilafm.net that the United States was blessed with a flexible society and the Americans would soon forgive Jones.

The retired quarter miler added that Jones might not spend her six-month term in the gulag, adding that she could be released early if she behaves herself and shows a sign of remorse.
