ML Gist: Karen Igho engaged! Is the Big Brother Africa star headed to the altar?

The 28-year-old made the announcement earlier yesterday via the social micro-blogging website, Twitter. 'He proposed. He said Karen, will you marry me', Karen Igho confirmed in a series of tweets. She also posted a picture on her timeline of a hand (believed to be hers) with a ring on the fourth finger.

In a text message, one of the BBA star's reps confirmed the story to be true but claimed ignorance of the proposer's identity. Her personal assistant also refused to make any comments concerning the proposal.

None of her tweets say who this mysterious suitor is, and fans and friends have expressed different reactions to the story, with many congratulating her.
