Why I Insulted Chichi During BBNaija Reunion – Phyna
Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) season seven winner, Phyna has revealed why she attacked former housemate, Chichi.
Recall that during a heated argument at this year’s BBNaija reunion, Phyna accused Chichi of abandoning her husband and children.
Phyna also alleged that Chichi was exploiting the loss of her parents as a strategy to gain sympathy and win the season seven show.
Revisiting the feud in a recent chat with Chude Jideonwo, the reality star said “you cannot be body-shaming me” and go scot-free.
In the interview, Phyna said she got infuriated because Chichi allegedly called her “unpleasant names”.
She also said Chichi sued her “for N100 million for libel and defamation of character” — two days after the reunion.
“The way I attacked her, they should have known she said something, that part was mute. Because the previous day, she body-shamed me, she called me shapeless and saggy boobs,” she said.
“That is why I had to use the word for her that she would record in her heart and brain. Because you cannot be body-shaming me that have a natural body, I had to remind her that there are stuff.
“You called me an abortionist, I reminded you that you have two kids that you abandoned. Two days later, she is suing me in court for N100 million for libel and defamation of character.
“I called my lawyer that if we did not reply to the lawsuit, what would happen? My lawyer said if we did not reply within 7 days, she could charge me in court. The next day I bought a suit to prepare for court. I do not like trouble but I love trouble.”

BBNaija Season 11: Keivo Becomes Second Housemate to be Disqualified
Keivo has become the second Big Brother Naija housemate to be disqualified from Season 11.
This follows his physical altercation with fellow housemate, Tram.
The fight broke out after Tram accused Keivo of taking one of his shirts.
Keivo did not take the allegation of theft lightly, and the situation eventually became violent.
It took the intervention of other housemates to calm both men down.
On Tuesday, Biggie sent ninjas to escort Keivo out of the house through the storeroom.
Biggie eventually gathered the remaining contestants and confirmed Keivo’s disqualification.
Nomy was the first housemate to be disqualified due to repeated defiance and refusal to wear an assigned punishment outfit.

Mofe-Damijo Envisions Bright Future for Nigeria at 66
Veteran actor and public speaker, Richard Mofe-Damijo, has expressed optimism about Nigeria’s future, describing the country as a work in progress, on its 66th Independence Anniversary on Oct. 1.
Mofe-Damijo said this while speaking on Nigeria’s journey at 66 at the Pivot Nigeria conference in Lagos.
He said although Nigeria had shortcomings, its relatively young age as a nation meant citizens should remain patient while continuing to contribute to its development.
“A bright one. We are a country, we’re a work in progress, and we must continue just doing the work,” he said.
According to him, building a civilisation takes time, adding that Nigeria at 66 remained young compared with many countries regarded as leading nations today.
He, however, stressed that the country’s age should not be an excuse for its shortcomings.
Mofe-Damijo urged Nigerians to remain committed to building the country and contributing positively to its growth.
He said every Nigerian was an ambassador of the country, noting that individual conduct could influence Nigeria’s reputation locally and internationally.
The actor urged citizens to demonstrate discipline, professionalism, punctuality and integrity in their daily activities.
He said Nigerians should view representing the country as a responsibility rather than a burden.
Mofe-Damijo added that Nigeria’s reputation would be strengthened when citizens consistently demonstrated excellence and maintained positive values wherever they found themselves. (NAN)
