Reality TV star Phyna has offered heartfelt words of encouragement to fellow Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) winner Imisi, as the latter faces a highly publicized family dispute with her mother. The ongoing feud, which has played out on social media, revolves around allegations concerning Imisi’s upbringing and the living conditions of her mother, despite Imisi’s N150 million BBNaija prize.
Drawing from her own experiences, Phyna’s message comes as both a show of solidarity and personal advice. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday, Phyna wrote:
"To Imisi, @imisiofficial and to anyone walking through the same fire… I’m praying for your strength. My own experience broke me, but I’m slowly rising. And I’m rooting for you with everything in me, don’t handle it like I did, build strong and focus on you baby girl."
Phyna’s words appear aimed at encouraging Imisi to stay strong and prioritize her personal well-being amid the emotional strain of a family dispute. The situation escalated when Imisi’s mother accused her of harboring resentment and publicly disclosed the reportedly poor state of her current home, raising questions about the financial support provided despite Imisi’s substantial winnings from BBNaija.
However, Imisi has publicly denied these claims. During a recent live session on TikTok, she emphasised that she has been supporting her mother and other family members, highlighting her efforts to provide for their needs responsibly.
Imisi rose to fame as the winner of BBNaija Season 10, taking home N80 million in cash from the N150 million grand prize after a season filled with dramatic twists, laughter, and memorable moments that captured the hearts of viewers nationwide. Her victory not only solidified her status as a reality TV star but also placed her personal life under the spotlight, making the current family dispute a matter of public interest.
As Imisi navigates these challenges, Phyna’s message serves as a reminder of the pressures that come with fame and the importance of self-care, even amid public scrutiny. Fans of both stars are watching closely, offering support and hoping for a resolution that prioritizes healing and growth over conflict.
