Big Brother Naija season 7 winner Phyna has opened up on how her childhood challenges have impacted her reactions as an adult.
The opinionated reality star opened up on the recent episode of her Spill With Phyna podcast which had the singer Minz as guest. She emphasised that growing up, things were difficult so she was constantly in survival mode.
"So what really keeps me going is my upbringing. It was very challenging and I grew up in a place where you had to survive. I no dey gree for anybody because it's around my upbringing, it was a very 'no gree for anybody' situation. I have seen how my mates who didn't try ended up, sorry to say. That's why I tell myself that it must be better," she said.
She added that she would not allow herself to be disrespected and let anything slide just because of her brand.
"I have helped myself get to this stage therefore nobody can disrespect me. So if I don't see you physically to fight you, because I like fights I'd drag you like Tiger generator on social media," she said.
"Most people would say Phyna is troublesome, she's this and that. I don't care how I big I get, I feel like I've made the adjustments to myself that I can for my brand. Plus it's the things that people say is the problem that has brought me this far, so don't expect me to drop it now. I want to continue to do it my own way. I'm not disrespectful, but if anyone brings trouble my way, dem go collect," she added.
