Controversial Nigerian reality TV star, Josephine Otabor well known Phyna has said she prefers raising pets to having children.

The winner of Big Brother Naija season seven made the comment during a livestream, where she spoke about how her views on motherhood have changed as she approaches 30.
“I am not big on wanting to have a child, though. I am very fertile, in case you are thinking that way,” Phyna said. “I just want to be mum to a cat and a dog.”
The 28-year-old also shared what she believes influences such preferences among women.
“I think the love for animals in women kicks in when you are approaching your 30s—some of them mid-30s, late 30s. Especially when you do not see yourself settling down,” she said.
“Maybe you have been through too many broken relationships. Women start to develop a likeness for pets. I think I am in that stage.”
Phyna rose to fame after winning the 2022 edition of Big Brother Naija. Since leaving the show, she has remained in the public eye.
