Multichoice, the organisers of Big Brother Naija reality show have been told to pay BBNaija winner, Phyna all her outstanding prize money.
The call was made by the Content Creating Skit-making and Influencers Guild of Nigeria (PCCSIGN) in a memo shared online.
The request was made through a formal memo sent to Multichoice, the organizers of the reality show. Phyna had previously criticised Big Brother Naija and Multichoice for not fulfilling their obligations to her, despite the upcoming new season.
In the memo, PCCSIGN emphasized the importance of settling the overdue debt to Phyna, who had chosen to remain silent on the matter to avoid negative labels.
Phyna, in a post sharing the memo, expressed her admiration for DSTV, Multichoice, and BBNaija, but stressed her desire to receive what is rightfully hers.
She wrote:
“This is a young Nigerian woman trying to get what she deserves. I have enough respect for ( MultiChoice, DSTV, and BBNaija ) but it is imperative that sponsors uphold their commitments to winners of the show.”
Recall that Josephina Otabor, also known as Phyna, the Season 7 winner of Big Brother Naija, has responded to claims by Ilebaye, the Season 8 winner that she got paid her prize money in full.
Ilebaye’s statement came shortly after Phyna openly lashed out at the organizers of the reality show for withholding part of her money.
Phyna, who reacted on social media, implied that Ilebaye violated the gender code by stating she had received her entire reward money.
She also stated that she would continue to seek her balance, citing that she worked hard for the money during the show’s 72-day run.
Phyna posted this on her X handle:
“Them girls take a chill pill. I’m happy y’all got your money in full according to you, seems I’m being cheated on then. Women supporting women in the mud.
“I believe I should at least get what I worked so hard for 72 days. Y’all suddenly remembered your alert screenshots and IG Live………… Common……one among others is 1BTC which is over 80m in today’s market.
“To those who got their money in full..I’m happy for you. As poor man pikin, make I ask for my money and things wey remain…..”
Meanwhile, Multichoice has announced auditions for its ninth Big Brother Naija reality show which will soon kick off.
Multichoice shared the news on its X page on Tuesday. It also revealed how interested individuals can audition for the show.
