How my Muslim ex-lover’s family threatened me to leave him alone, Phyna reveals
Former BBN winner Josephina Itabor, popularly known as Phyna, has shared her struggle with religious acceptance in a past relationship.
In a recent interview, Phyna revealed that she left the relationship after getting threats from her ex-lover’s family.
She said despite her willingness to convert from Catholicism to Islam for her Muslim lover, she faced rejection from his family.
Phyna stated that she discovered she was pregnant after the breakup, but her ex-lover dismissed it as her business.
She, however, disclosed that she had to terminate the pregnancy.
“I would have loved to keep the child but the embarrassment was too much. Not even one person in the family wanted a Christian and I felt I had a bright future and I knew it was going to draw me back so I was left to make the hardest choice ever,” she said.
