BBNaija’s Phyna Seeks Justice Against Hair Vendor Cyberbulling Her
In a formal petition dated 22nd December 2023, Reality TV star and CEO of First Phyria Enterprises, Otabor Josephine, better known as Phyna has lodged a complaint with the Nigeria Police State Criminal Investigation Department in Panti – Yaba, Lagos.
This was contained in a picture posted by the winner of Big Brother Naija season 7, on her official Instagram page on Wednesday.
Biztellers reports that last year December the accused hair vendor, “dbeautyhair” took to social media platforms including Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp to call out Phyna over unreturned wig borrowed by her to an event.
Consequently, Phyna has now accused Damilola Olaore of Beauty Hair, along with others, of engaging in conspiracy, cyberbullying, and cyber stalking.
The complaint, addressed to the DCP State CID, details an incident on the 10th of December 2023 when Phyna had a movie premiere at 1 Max Cinema Lekki, Lagos.
Seeking a hairstylist for the event, Phyna enlisted the services of fashion stylist Teniola Azeez Olalekan.
However, following the public exposure of her engagement with Olalekan, Phyna claims that Olaore, operating under the name “dbeautyhair” with the phone number 08075884184, initiated a campaign of online harassment.
These actions, according to Phyna, were aimed at tarnishing her reputation, character, and brand, thereby jeopardizing her image and goodwill.
In her plea to the DCP, Josephine expresses her desire for a thorough police investigation to bring the perpetrators to justice. She attaches copies of the offensive postings as evidence and urges the police to intervene, emphasizing her commitment to upholding the law rather than taking matters into her own hands.
“I am a law-abiding citizen of Nigeria, am actress celebrity and the C.E.O First Phyria Enterprises.
“With profound respect to the office of the DCP State CID, Panti, I wish to officially uses this medium to report the nefarious activities of Damilola Olaore of the beauty hair with phone number 08075884184 and others.

Model Olajumoke Orisaguna, popularly known as Olajumoke Onibread, has opened up about her traumatic experiences in her marriage, accusing her ex-husband, Sunday Orisaguna, of domestic violence and ruining her career.
In an interview with City FM, Olajumoke shared harrowing details of her past, highlighting the abuse she endured during her time in her ex-husband’s family home in Ire, Osun State.
“We stayed in my husband’s family house at Ire in Osun State, and there is no way you stay in such a place that you would not encounter problems,” she recounted.
Olajumoke revealed that her mother-in-law’s hostility exacerbated the situation, as her ex-husband often sided with his mother without hearing her perspective.
“He would not hear my own side of the story before beating me. Whenever I had a misunderstanding with his mother, he would beat me to the extent that my face and body would be swollen. Sometimes he would even use a belt,” she said.

She further explained how she kept the abuse hidden to avoid upsetting her mother, who also lived nearby. Despite the hardships, Olajumoke continued to support the family financially, as her husband was unemployed.
Reflecting on a pivotal moment in January 2016, Olajumoke described the day she decided to leave:
“We were frying akara for his dad’s remembrance when I had an issue with his elder sister. As usual, he beat me up, and I decided that I was going to leave, move to Lagos, and start working at the bakery because I had been there before.”
Three days later, she relocated to Lagos with her two children. According to Olajumoke, the separation led to further challenges as her ex-husband began tarnishing her reputation, contributing to her career’s decline.
“Everything started going down the drain after separation because he started spoiling my name. Since then, things started going down,” she lamented.
Olajumoke, who rose to fame in 2016 after a chance encounter during a photoshoot with British rapper Tinie Tempah and photographer TY Bello, is now using her platform to shed light on the struggles she endured.
The model’s story has reignited conversations about domestic abuse and the societal pressures faced by women in similar situations.
