BBNaija star Phyna has voiced her distress over facing judgment and criticism for undergoing an abortion several years ago, expressing remorse for her actions.
In a recent podcast with Doyin, Phyna reiterated that the decision to have an abortion is not something she takes pride in. She admitted that if faced with a similar situation again, she would choose to keep the child.
Elaborating further, Phyna clarified that the media had misconstrued her previous statement about every woman having had an abortion, distorting it to fit their narrative.
This revelation comes after the reality star had previously shared her abortion experience, a disclosure that attracted significant backlash and scrutiny.
She said:
“I didn’t want to talk about it [abortion] anymore because it is obvious a lot of bloggers try to twist my words to their satisfaction. This is something that happened a very long time ago, too young, as at then I think around 20 years, I knew I wanted to be somebody in life.
“It’s not something I am proud of, I mean nobody should be proud of that, but this happened while I was younger. I knew what I went through. Nobody knew what I went through, it’s not something I am proud of but let’s call a spade a spade.”
