Josephine Otabor, reality TV star popularly called Phyna, has announced that she is dropping her surname, due to lack of connection with her family.
The BBNaija season 7 winner, disclosed this via her verified X handle on Thursday night.
Phyna, revealed that she’s been struggling with her emotions, feeling lost and uncertain about her current situation lately, as no family knows how she came about.
She lamented how they’ve never been supportive of her since childhood.

The reality star 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 toss around relative, I should suspected but guess I was too young… omo my head wan tear!!”
