Phyna, the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 7, has clarified that she did not use any techniques from previous housemates to secure her victory. In an interview with MTV Base Sparks alongside BBN Season 6 winner Whitemoney, Phyna revealed that she had auditioned for Big Brother five times before being selected.
Whitemoney jokingly suggested that Phyna used his script in the house to enhance her own game, to which she responded by explaining her auditioning process and her lack of interest in watching previous seasons. She mentioned that she had auditioned for Big Brother for four years before finally being chosen in the fifth year.
Phyna further explained that she refrained from watching Big Brother during the years she wasn’t selected and expressed her jealousy towards those participating. Regarding the phrase “Who deyyyy?” that she used in the house, she clarified that it was a phrase she often used and didn’t realize it was also used by Whitemoney in the previous season. Despite the accusations of copying, Phyna humorously stated that as long as Whitemoney emerged as the winner, she didn’t mind being associated with his catchphrase.
