BBNaija star Phyna's father, Felix Otabor, reached out to Vanguard recently to further confirm that his daughter had given him an SUV as a gift after winning the reality TV show in 2022 but that there was more to it.

Recall that the media house previously published an exclusive interview with Phyna's dad, who claimed that after she won the N100 million grand prize in 2022, she became estranged from her family.

He claimed that Phyna had purchased a car for him, but he still needed more help. After winning Biggie's show, Phyna bought him an SUV, but it was not enough. He had wanted her to replace the older vehicles he used for work.

The father claimed that his daughter convinced him to sell the old cars with the assurance that she would buy new ones.

Otabor said he thought his first interview would compel Phyna to reach out to her family, but it backfired and made things worse.
