The real Mo Farah
Sir Mo Farah on how he was taken away from his family in Somalia at the age of nine, given a new identity and brought to the UK illegally.
You may think you know Sir Mo Farah - national treasure, Somali-born British hero of the London 2012 Olympics and one of the most successful athletes in history. But there's a lot about Sir Mo's childhood we didn't know - until now. For the first time, he's revealed he was a victim of child slavery and trafficked into the UK. He says he was taken away from his family in Somalia at the age of nine and put into forced labour for a family in west London. For 5 Minutes On, Mo shares his story for the very first time.
