Fans have taken to social media to react to a recent post by former Big Brother Naija housemate, Chizzy Francis, who is also known to be a close friend of Phyna.
This comes after Phyna was captured in a viral video engaging in a heated altercation with another woman at a hotel in Abuja.
According to circulating reports, the clash allegedly stemmed from a disagreement involving ₦200,000. The footage quickly spread across social media, sparking mixed reactions from fans and critics alike.
While some sympathized with Phyna, others harshly criticized her, claiming her behavior was unbecoming of a celebrity.
In response to the controversy, Chizzy took to social media to defend his friend. He stated that standing by Phyna wasn’t a choice but a necessity, explaining that she is human and currently struggling emotionally following the recent loss of her sister, Ruth.
In Chizzy’s words:
“Important notice. Defending PHYNA isn’t optional. She’s human, she’s grieving, and she deserves respect. Bullying her online won’t make you stronger, it’ll just show how weak you are. Choose kindness, or choose to be ignored.”
To everyone jumping to conclusions and criticizing PHYNA let’s take a step back. We’ve all been through tough times, and we don’t know what someone’s dealing with behind closed doors. She just lost her sister, and the last thing she needs is hate. Let’s focus on spreading love and support instead. We don’t know what we’d do in her shoes. Let’s be kind

@theradiantjanet:”Grief can make emotions run high, and I understand that!”
@ilovemelaB:”Human beings ehhh from the video I watched I didn’t see Phyna even being aggressive. She was just trying to defend herself from that girl’s attacks. But as its Phyna theywon’t want to see that side. Chizzy pls check on her.”
@laranja_val:”She didn’t even start any fight.. she was just standing there and the girl went straight for the attack and she is the one being blamed just because she is the popular one.”
@dikechiebuka3:”Phyna can do better, you people as her friends and colleagues can do better by sitting her down and advise her. This is not the first time she is being involved with unnecessary public drama. Yes, there is no perfect person but she can do much better than this, she must not.”
@tallest_son_042:”God phyna is been through alot, clearly looking at her she’s weak God help 😢.”
