Big Brother Naija ‘Level Up’ winner Josephine Otabor, known as Phyna, has shared her thoughts on the ongoing online discussion about DNA tests. Recently, Nigerians have been debating whether DNA tests are essential, sparked by recent cases of paternity disputes.
Last week, music executive Don Jazzy made headlines by suggesting that DNA tests should take precedence over traditional naming ceremonies. Phyna voiced her agreement with his viewpoint, posting on X that she believes DNA tests should become mandatory right after birth. “I support DNA tests over naming ceremonies,” she wrote. “It should be made compulsory immediately after birth.”
In another recent incident, Phyna accused a police officer of taking ₦3,000 from her car. The reality star took to X to share that during a routine stop and search in Lagos, an officer allegedly removed the cash from her car’s pigeonhole. Phyna stated that the money went missing after the stop, stressing that she did not give it willingly to the officer.
