BBNaija winner, Phyna’s fans drag Davido after he claimed he didn’t know her
The fans of a Big Brother Naija show winner, Phyna, are dragging superstar singer Davido for claiming not to know the reality star.
The drama started when Davido liked a tweet that made a rather harsh statement about Phyna. The tweet, posted by a Twitter user, implied that anyone who followed Phyna must have something wrong with him/her.
Somehow, Davido endorsed this view by liking it.
Phyna was disappointed that Davido could endorse that sort of view about her and decided to address the matter directly by tagging Davido and expressing her confusion about his stance.
She wondered what she did to earn his disapproval. She also took the opportunity to congratulate the singer on the birth of his twins.
Davido in his response made things worse. He first expressed his gratitude for her congratulatory message and clarified that he actually clicked the ‘like’ button in error. He now added that he did not even know who Phyna was in any event.
That last clincher has since set off a chain of reactions. Social media users believed Davido was being cheeky by claiming not to know Phyna, and some thought it was disrespectful of the reality star.
Phyna poured a little fuel into the fire when she took to her platform to bemoan the tendency of people to undermine her because of her personality. She jocularly expressed her intention to move to another country where people would be able to accept her for who she is.
She pointed out that if an A-list celebrity like Davido could publicly support a tweet that cast her in a negative light, it could only serve to reinforce this negative image.
However, Phyna didn’t intend to let this situation define her. She announced her determination to do everything in her power to establish her name and reputation.
Her fans have since taken up the fight, telling Davido he is not God.
They held a Twitter Space session where they had a field day thrash-talking Davido for disrespecting their queen.
Online reactions have trailed the development.
