Phyna Upset After Being Denied Entry to Imisi's Birthday Party

Reality TV star Josephina Otabor, popularly known as Phyna, faced a public backlash after being denied entry to the 2026 birthday party of Imisi, the winner of Big Brother Naija. The incident occurred on January 27, 2026, at the event venue.

Phyna livestreamed the encounter where she was visibly upset as security officials prevented her from entering, citing rules against filming inside the party. Despite explaining that she intended to support Imisi on her special day, Phyna was not allowed in, leading to a tense moment at the entrance.

She questioned the enforcement of rules, highlighting what she perceived as double standards in how popular content creators were treated. While the security officials maintained that filming was not permitted inside the party, Phyna felt unfairly treated and expressed her concerns publicly.
