Phyna rejects family, suspects she was adopted 

Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) Season 7 winner, Josephine Ijeoma Otabor, better known as Phyna, has publicly disowned her family, saying she has been going through difficult times lately.

 

She made this known via a post she shared on Thursday night on her official X page, where she also revealed that she has dropped her surname, Otabor.

 

The Edo-born reality star in the now-viral tweet went on to lament that her family has never been supportive since her childhood.

 

She further added that her current family might not be her biological family, adding that she’s still searching for answers

 

Speaking via her verified social media handle, Phyna wrote, “I am publicly dropping my family surname Otabor… It has been proven that I actually have no family and nobody knows how I came about…. I’m still searching for answers though.

 

“It’s been rough with me lately…… I’m in a place where I can’t even describe how I feel or what to call what I’m going through. Going up and the way I was tossed around relatives, I should have suspected, but guess I was too young… omo my head wan tear!!”

 

 

A few months ago, Phyna’s dad, Mr Otabor called her out in a national daily and alleged that she has not been assisting him and other members of the  family since attaining stardom.
