Incomplete prize: Phyna rejects N13m offer, insists on 1 BTC, trip to Maldives

• Quidax had pledged to give Phyna 1 BTC as part of her prizes but were yet to fulfil their promise two years after.
• Following Phyna’s recent outburst, they met with the reality star and offered her N13m which they claimed was the value of 1 BTC in 2022 when they made the pledge.
• Phyna in a recent video, said she rejected the offer and insisted that they gave her the 1 BTC which she said is now worth over N90 million.
• She also insisted that the organisers of the reality show and their sponsors must give her tickets for a trip-for-two to Maldives which was also part of her prize.

Big brother naija season seven winner Josephina Otabor, popularly known as Phyna, has turned down a N13m sum proposed by Quidax, a sponsor of the reality show.

Phyna, who won the show’s 2022 season, has been vocal about the incomplete delivery of her winnings.

Recall that Quidax had committed to giving Phyna 1 Bitcoin (BTC) as a part of her victory package, yet two years have passed without this commitment being honored.

In the wake of Phyna’s public dissatisfaction, representatives from Quidax approached the reality star with a N13m offer, asserting it represented the 2022 value of 1 BTC at the time of their original promise.

In a recent video shared on her social media, Phyna disclosed her decision to refuse the monetary offer, demanding instead the promised 1 BTC, now valued at over N90 million.

She further asserted her entitlement to a couple’s trip to the Maldives, another part of her prize package.

Phyna stated:

“I am standing on my Maldives trip for two. So I’m waiting to get my tickets for Maldives. You can’t give me Kenya or Morocco as options to pick from. I can fund my trip if I want to go to Kenya or Morocco.”

Phyna also recounted her interaction with Quidax, where she was presented with N13 million, purportedly equivalent to the 2022 rate of 1 BTC. She challenged this, recalling that her research in November 2022 indicated 1 BTC was worth N22 million, contrary to their claim of N13.8 million.

Upon verification, she found that 1 BTC was approximately N19 million at that time.

“Also, Quidax said they will give me N13m; the rate of 1 BTC in 2022. Before I countered that, I reminded them that as at when I checked in November 2022, 1 BTC was N22m but they insisted that it was N13.8m. So I referred to my Google and it showed me that 1 BTC was about N19m in November 2022.
