Big Brother Naija ‘Level Up’ winner, Ijeoma Otabor better known as Phyna has credited herself for paving the way for Hype women in Nigeria.
The reality star, during a recent episode of her podcast, noted how before going to Biggie’s house, she was the only Hype woman in Abuja, but after her return from the show, she started seeing lots of hype girls.
She stated that whether they acknowledge or admit it or not, she was the one who paved the way for them. She explained that her success after the reality show made them realize they could also make it big with hyping.
Phyna further stated that when she went to Ghana, she saw many hype girls and most of them followed her on Instagram. She added that tomorrow such ladies would say no one paved the way for them, meanwhile, they saw her do it first and followed suit.
“Before I went to BBN, I was a hype woman. I used to be in Abuja and I was the only Hype girl in Abuja and I was getting known, I was going to clubs and they were already knowing me. When I went into the show and came out, I started seeing plenty of hype girls. Whether they like it or not, I paved the way for them because it was at that point they realized a hype person can go big.
Even when I went to Ghana, a lot of girls came to me saying they were hype girls and I was like ‘Wow that’s good’ and a lot of them followed me on Instagram. Tomorrow now, somebody would say no one paved the way for me. No, you saw someone do it first and you wanted to do it. For me, I saw someone do it first before I did it”.
