Social media users are dragging Big Brother Naija Level Up winner, Phyna, for choosing to twerk during a Twitch livestream on Saturday, January 3.
The Nigerian reality star, whose real name is Ijeoma Josephina Otabor, infuriated her viewers with her antics during the livestream session, specifically because she chose to move on too quickly following the demise of her sister.
It would be recalled that her younger sister, Ruth Otabor, died in September 2025 from injuries sustained after being crushed by a Dangote truck. At the time, this incident sparked outrage from social media users, garnering immense sympathy and support for the reality star. Months after Phyna’s younger sister was laid to rest, the 2022 BBNaija winner started her own livestreaming session where she was seen twerking.
Wearing a green outfit, the reality star unapologetically gyrated to the music playing in the studio apartment.
This particular segment has sparked predominantly negative reactions from social media users. Some commentators believe that the reality star ought not to have moved on too quickly from her sister’s untimely demise.
