Nigerian media personality and former Big Brother Naija winner, Phyna, has responded strongly to criticism over her decision not to have children.
The reality star had earlier stated that she prefers raising pets rather than becoming a biological mother, a stance that drew backlash from some social media users.
Reacting to the criticism, Phyna defended her choice, describing her critics as hypocritical and outdated in their thinking.
She also revealed that her decision is influenced by her personal upbringing and fear of repeating negative parenting patterns.
”Dumb country people, so me not wanting a child is what makes me a failure and resulting to all this insults na …… y’all brains is still stuck in the 60’s era. Na why whites go still ever better pass us. Bunch of hypocrites STAY MAD y’all. Me wey dem born how them take care of me. I don’t want to bring a child in. I’m scared of becoming a parent like the one I
