Phyna, the winner of Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) Season 7, has ignited a storm of reactions on social media after revealing that she has decided to drop her surname, declaring that she has “no family.” This bold announcement has fueled speculation about the ongoing tensions between the reality TV star and her family, which have been a topic of public debate for some time.
The controversy surrounding Phyna’s relationship with her family began last year when her father alleged in an interview that she had severed ties with them following her rise to fame. He claimed that Phyna no longer picks up their calls or maintains any form of contact. In response, Phyna strongly refuted these allegations, insisting that they were “unfounded” and publicly addressed her family’s remarks, maintaining that there was no truth to the claims.
Phyna’s decision to drop her surname appears to be a dramatic escalation in her ongoing conflict with her relatives. The reality star’s statement has led many to speculate about the deeper issues affecting her personal life. Fans and critics alike are questioning whether this marks a permanent rift between Phyna and her family or if there are other, more complicated factors at play behind the scenes.
