‘I became bad person in my family when I started saying ‘no’ — Phyna
رجوع
Reality TV star Phyna has spoken emotionally about her strained relationship with family members, saying she became “the bad person” after she began refusing financial requests following her Big Brother Naija win.
In a live session, Phyna said she initially felt she was doing the right thing by supporting her relatives financially, but eventually realized the pressure was overwhelming and unsustainable.
“I thought I was helping my family sort out things. I thought I was normal. No money they call, na so I dey share am like mumu,” she said.
She added that none of the adults around her advised her to invest or manage her earnings wisely.
“All of them, all the adults, nobody say, ‘Ah, Phyna come now. How much be that wey dey your hand? Come do small thing.’ Nobody was interested in me investing.”
Phyna also described repeated financial demands from relatives, saying the expectations became constant and draining.
“This one say her husband die, make I give her 1 million for her husband. This one say he want do borehole. I know how many boreholes I did for them?”
According to her, tensions in the family began when she started turning down requests.
“The moment I started saying no like this, na there I have problem. That’s been the beginning of my problem.”
She also recalled an earlier disagreement involving her father and a roofing decision, which she said marked one of her first major conflicts after winning the show.
“No, I cannot buy this particular roofing, it’s too expensive, Daddy. Let’s buy another roofing.”
The BBNaija winner explained that as her money reduced, she began limiting how much she gave out.
“Somebody will ask for 1 million, I’ll say, ‘Okay, wait, let me give you 500,000.’”
Phyna further reflected on how she was treated before fame, claiming she was often doubted by those around her.
“They go dey say me, I no go reach river before I fetch water. Say I go carry belle. Nothing good.”
