Phyna ‘escapes kidnappers attack’ in Delta

Josephine Otabor, the reality TV star fondly called Phyna, says she “escaped a kidnap attempt” in Delta state. 

In a recent post on X, Phyna said on her way to an event in Delta, she allegedly witnessed how kidnappers hijacked four cars in front of the one she was in and took the passengers away.

The reality star surprisingly inquired whether she had just survived the kidnappers’ attack. She added that the incident left her in a state of shock.

In the past years, Nigeria has witnessed a surge in the rate of kidnapping in different states.

Last week, the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) asked President Bola Tinubu to declare a state of emergency on the insecurity in the country.

Consequently, Tinubu, 36 state governors, and the minister of the federal capital territory (FCT) have also agreed on the need to recruit more police officers to tackle the growing insecurity.
