A recent incident involving reality TV star Phyna has sparked controversy in Abuja, Nigeria. The Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner took to social media to accuse a hotel in the Gwarinpa area of endangering her life and allegedly detaining her over claims of damaging property.
According to Phyna, the incident occurred when a group of unauthorized individuals gained access to her room, leading to a physical altercation. She claimed that the hotel management failed to provide adequate security, allowing the individuals to bypass the main gate and reception before breaking down her door on the second floor. Phyna further alleged that the hotel’s employees disclosed her room number to the intruders, leading to the confrontation.
The reality star expressed frustration over the incident, stating that she felt overwhelmed by the series of distressing experiences she has faced in 2025. Phyna claimed that the hotel, identified as Dalchifit Hotel, is now attempting to detain her until Monday unless she pays ₦3.5 million in damages.
The incident has raised concerns about the safety and security of hotel guests in Nigeria. Phyna’s experience has sparked a wider discussion about the responsibility of hotels to protect their guests from harm. The incident is also a reminder of the importance of adequate security measures in public accommodations.
Phyna’s allegations against the hotel have not been independently verified, and the hotel’s management has not publicly responded to the claims. However, the incident has already garnered significant attention on social media, with many of Phyna’s fans expressing outrage and support for the reality star.
The incident is a notable example of the challenges faced by public figures in Nigeria, who often face harassment and intimidation. Phyna’s experience highlights the need for increased awareness and action to address these issues and ensure the safety and security of all individuals, regardless of their public status. As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how the hotel and relevant authorities will respond to Phyna’s allegations.
