Il a quitté la scène à 81 ans – DR

Ancienne vedette de Canal 10, homme politique et chanteur, le Basse-Terrien a tiré sa révérence à 81 ans. Aimé ou détesté, il n’a jamais laissé indifférent. 

Homme très controversé l’artiste, le politique, l’animateur télé et radio, Ibo Simon est  décédé ce samedi, à 81 ans, des suites d’une longue maladie. On l’a d’abord connu en tant que chanteur. L’un de ses titres sorti en 1979 Même si  je dois mourir un jour” a eu un énorme succès. Devenu animateur sur la télé Canal 10, il a gagné en popularité. Ses propos divisaient. Il avait ses partisans –les Ibobiens comme il les appelait–  qui appréciaient ses mots outranciers et souvent racistes. Les Haïtiens, les Dominicains étaient à ses yeux les ennemis de la Guadeloupe et profitaient des largesses du pays. Il était d’ailleurs soutenu par feu Raymond Viviès, un homme politique haut en couleur. A cette époque, il devient  une véritable vedette et décide de se lancer  en politique avec un certain succès. Il est devenu conseiller municipal et a même été élu en 1995, conseiller régional. En 2001, il a été condamné par la justice pour incitation à la haine raciale et a été privé de ses droits civiques. Petit à petit, ses déboires personnels – il avait été accusé d’attouchement sexuel par une femme qu’il avait pris en stop – et la maladie l’ont éloigné  de la scène publique.

Este viernes, el tenista suizo Roger Federer puso fin a su prestigiosa carrera deportiva, a sus 41 años, con una derrota frente al dúo Jack Sock y Frances Tiafoe. Federer jugaba de pareja con el español Rafa Nadal en un choque de dobles masculino de la Copa Laver, disputada en Londres, Reino Unido. El partido se decidió con un desempate de 11-9. La superestrella había anunciado la semana pasada que se retiraba del tenis. Aún entre lágrimas, el 20 veces ganador del Grand Slam insistió en que “está feliz, no triste”, informó AS, este sábado.

Al final del partido, Federer disfrutó de un largo abrazo con su viejo rival, Nadal, antes de recibir una última ovación por parte de una multitud de pie que asistió al encuentro. “Mira, ha sido un día maravilloso. Les dije a los muchachos que estoy feliz, no estoy triste. Me siento genial estando aquí y he disfrutado atándome los cordones una vez más”, comentó.

“Siento como si esto fuera una celebración para mí”, agregó Federer. Luego, visiblemente emocionado agradeció a su esposa, Mirka (Miroslava ‘Mirka’ Federer, también extenista profesional suiza). “Mi esposa me ha apoyado tanto… podría haberme detenido hace mucho, mucho tiempo, pero no lo hizo. Ella me mantuvo en marcha y me permitió jugar, así que gracias. Ella es asombrosa”.

El ‘Reloj Suizo’, apodo con el que se conoce al deportista por su nacionalidad, desarrolló una exitosa carrera conquistando premios de Grand Slam, ATP Master 1000, Dobles, Juegos Olímpicos, entre otros, hasta un total de más de 100 títulos.
