Nigerian indigenous rapper, Chibuzor Nelson Azubuike, also known as Phyno has denied reports that he has sickle cell disease.

Phyno made the clarification in a tweet on Wednesday.

A fan identified as Ele Peter had in a tweet alleged that his love for the singer tripled when she found out that he had sickle cell.

She wrote, “ Since I heard Phyno has sickle cell the love tripled, I pray God grants him the strength to keep fighting.”

Reacting, Phyno wrote, “ Lol. No, I do not have sickle cell. Love to everyone fighting it though.”
