Former Big Brother Naija winner Phyna has accused popular Nigerian influencer VeryDarkMan of allegedly manipulating public opinion against her after she rejected his alleged sexual advance.
Phyna made the allegation on Sunday in a series of posts shared on X amid her ongoing online dispute with the influencer.
The reality star had earlier contacted VeryDarkMan in 2025 to seek justice for her late younger sister, Ruth Otabor, who reportedly died after being hit by a truck belonging to Dangote Cement in Edo State.
Following public outrage and VeryDarkMan’s involvement in the case, Dangote Cement reportedly pledged to take responsibility for the medical treatment of the accident victims.
However, days later, VeryDarkMan withdrew from the matter, alleging that Phyna had gone behind him to negotiate directly with the company.
Reacting to the claim, Phyna denied holding any secret negotiations and accused the influencer of attempting to twist the narrative against her while also blocking her.
Speaking further about their fallout over the weekend, the BBNaija star alleged that VeryDarkMan had expressed interest in sleeping with her, but she rejected him.
Sharing what she described as chat evidence, Phyna said she could never forgive the influencer for allegedly tarnishing her image during the campaign for justice over her sister’s death.
“VeryDarkMan came out to say the opposite of what happened. I can never forgive him because he turned me into a bad person over my sister’s case.
“He is someone I held in high esteem, but he switched up on me, claiming I requested N1 billion from Dangote.
“I was shocked because such a conversation never happened. Maybe he started holding grudges against me because he said he wanted to sleep with me and I didn’t accept,” she said.
