Josephine Otabor, widely known as Phyna, the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 7, has addressed recent reports suggesting that she had ‘abandoned’ her family following her victory and the receipt of the N100 million grand prize in 2022.
A newspaper reported that Mr. Felix Otabor, Phyna’s father, lamented in an interview that his daughter “disappeared into thin air as soon as the prize money was handed over to her, and she never returned to her parents to butter their bread.”
He was also quoted to have said Phyna neither calls nor answers their calls since she left the BBNaija house.
Reacting in a now-deleted post on X, Phyna threatened to take legal action against the newspaper that published the interview.
