The former reality star had complained about the issues in her family and how some people in her family are giving her headaches and want her dead. It triggered her to make the decision.

According to Maduagwu, Phyna’s decision was not the best and she should value her family. He added that some people are going through worse situations in their homes but they have not dropped their family’s surname nor do they share their issues online.

The film star also suggested that the only way Phyna can change her family’s surname is by getting married and adopting her husband’s surname.
