Mr. Felix Otabor, father to winner of BBN season 7, Phyna, has allegedly complained about how she has been treating him and the family ever since she became a millionaire.
According to Benjamin Njoku’s report in Vanguard Newspaper, Phyna’s parents thought their s¥ffering had come to an end because of her N100m win from the BBN show, unknown to them that their woes just began.
It is reported that the very day Phyna was announced winner of BBNaija season 7, in 2022 was the last time her parents said they set their eyes on her. She disappeared into thin air as soon as the prize money was handed over to her, and she never returned to her parents to butter their bread.
“It, however, became obvious after one year of eloping with her prize money that their daughter had gone her way. Worse still, is the fact that Phyna neither calls nor answers her parents’ calls since she left the BBNaija house. Yet, she’s seen all over social media, displaying affluence, posh and class,” the report stated.
Narrating his ordeal to Vanguard Newspaper, 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 s¥ffocate her family, while she enjoys her wealth alone.
He said, “I haven’t seen Phyna, my daughter since she wonBBNaija ‘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 sc vengers, I decided to sell them as scraps and used the proceeds to renovate my house. And that was the beginning of my s¥ffering. 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
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 dir 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’tanswer 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
