The 2022 BBNaija winner, Phyna, has become a hot topic online due to a recent emotional video where he revealed that the reality show owes him $1BTC, which amounts to over N100 million.
In the video, Phyna expressed his frustration, stating that despite winning the reality show, he continues to work as if he hadn’t won anything at all.
This issue stems from a previous statement by Phyna, where he mentioned that out of the N100 million prize money he won, he received only N50 million, while the remaining N50 million in gifts from show sponsors had not been delivered to him since 2022.
In an official statement shared on his verified Instagram page on April 8th, 2024, Phyna specified that he is still awaiting several gifts promised by sponsors, including 1 BTC from Quidax Global, a year’s supply of Pepsi products from Seven-Up Bottling Company, a trip for two to Dubai from Travelbeta, and a year’s supply of soap products from Evans Industries (Unik Soap).
Phyna mentioned in the recent video that he has received all these gifts after calling out the sponsors, except for the 1 BTC, which is now valued at over N100 million.
She said; “Nigerians Please Help Me, Big Brother Naija are still owing me $1BTC over N100Million that I won, They have refused to give me the Money and are saying I should do my worst and take them to Court that i can’t win them”
Phyna added; “Big Brother Has Ruined My Brand And Image, and set my up for Failure, Making Me Drag Them online For Something That’s Rightfully Mine thereby Making Nigerians See Me As A Nuisance and a Very Troublesome Bad Person, Since 2022 When I won Big Brother Naija they Have Been Owing Me The ($1BTC) N100Million Prize Money I won and they have Refused to give me till today telling me I can never win them in Court and i should go ahead and sue them.”
