"I Don't Want To Have A Child" – Phyna Claims

By Oluwarantimi Oludase 

Controversial reality star Ijeoma Otabor, popularly known as Phyna, has opened up on her resolution to prioritize being a pet mom over birthing kids.

Phyna made the claim in a now-viral video broadcast on social media, stating despite the state of her fertility, childbirth is not on her mind, because her preference is focused on animals.

She explained that her resolution stemmed from several relationships breakdown, which largely influenced her decision to focus on solely a pet mom.

She said:
"After all, I don’t even want to have a child. I’m very fertile, but I just want to be a cat and dog mom. I think the love for animals in women kicks in when we’re approaching 30s.

Especially when you don’t see yourself settling down or maybe you’ve been into so many broken relationships. I think I’m at that stage right now."
