The father of BBNaija season 7 winner, Josephina 'Phyna' Otabor, has claimed the reality star has abandoned her family after she found fame and became rich.
Recall that Phyna won the BBNaija ‘Level Up’ edition grand
prize of N100 million in 2022. At the time, her parents thought their suffering
had come to an end, but unknown to them, their challenges were going to remain
unchanged.
Narrating his ordeal to Vanguard during the week, Phyna’s father, Mr Felix Otabor said what was disturbing him at the moment was not the fact that his daughter refused to return to them after her victory at BBNaija,, but that she had asked him to stop being a hearse driver(Somebody who transport the deceased person from the funeral home or mortuary to the final resting place), hoping for the best. But he never knew that his daughter had other plans to suffocate her family, while she enjoys her wealth alone.
Hear him, “I haven’t seen Phyna, my daughter since she won
BBNaija ‘Level Up’ edition last year. She hasn’t returned home since then. I
don’t know why? I am a professional hearse driver, and when she won the reality
TV show, she asked me to do away with all my old cars, promising to change my
life. But since then, I haven’t seen her. And I don’t have a car again. Once in
a while, the Vice-Chairman of our association will allow me to drive his own
car.
“I sold all my four cars because at the time , my daughter
won the show. I thought that God had finally answered our prayers. I called her
on the telephone, and she said God has blessed us. She asked me to do away with
all my old cars, or she would give them out to Aboki, any day she returned. So,
instead of allowing her to dash out my cars to scavengers, I decided to sell
them as scraps and used the proceeds to renovate my house. And that was the
beginning of my suffering. I stopped doing my business because I had no car
again. And my neighbours thought I was either stingy or pretending as if my
daughter just won a N100 million grand prize. I was the Vice-Chairman of our
association, but when I couldn’t show up at our station for some time, they
replaced me with another person.
From that moment, things started getting tough for me.I am
even looking for somebody that will give me a car on hire purchase. I need
help, it has come to that point/. I don’t want to die in silence.’
Otobar, who hails from Ekpeon, in Edo State, but resides in
Lagos, is the father of four children. He’s an ambulance car driver, whose hope
of a better life after his daughter won the BBNaija ‘Level Up’ edition’s grand
prize of N100 million was dashed as soon as he was incubating it.
Sadly, the 68-year-old ambulance car driver said Phyna doesn’t
answer their calls again. He wondered what they have done wrong to desire this
kind of treatment being their first child.
Asked why Phyna was snubbing them, Otabor said he couldn’t
explain, adding that he didn’t know his daughter’s whereabouts when he spoke to
us during the week. “I only see her on Facebook or Instagram whenever she
shares new photos on these platforms,” he added.
Meanwhile, when our reporter contacted Phyna on the
telephone, at first she didn’t answer her calls. Instead, she sent a text
message that she was busy on-site shooting! Later, she returned the calls but
it was almost like a quarrel. And when a question was posed to her she
immediately dropped the call and never picked it up again.
