I Am a Celebrity, You Can Not Tell Me That: Phyna Challenges Police Over Unacceptable Road Stop

Reality TV Star Demands Procedure, Threatens to Report Officer’s ‘Random’ Check to High Command

Reality TV star Phyna has publicly called out a police officer after a tense roadside encounter, accusing the officer of unprofessional conduct and vowing to escalate the matter to higher authorities.

The incident occurred when the BBNaija winner’s vehicle was stopped by an officer on a Nigerian road. In a video of the encounter, a visibly agitated Phyna challenges the legitimacy of the stop, arguing that law enforcement must follow proper procedure.

“Oga, I am a celebrity. How dare you stop me and say what you said?” Phyna is heard telling the officer. She criticized the practice of randomly selecting vehicles, stating, “In the middle of the road, police in Nigeria will now just pick a random car and stop it. I’ve never heard of this before.”

Her core argument focused on professional standards. “Police need to park properly before stopping a vehicle. You’re not allowed to stop like this,” she insisted, describing the officer’s approach as “wrong and unacceptable.”

While directly confronting the officer and demanding an explanation for the stop, Phyna also showed restraint by advising her driver to remain calm and avoid a physical confrontation. Her strategy, she indicated, was to address the conduct itself rather than escalate into a heated argument.

By speaking out, Phyna uses her platform to question what she sees as an arbitrary use of authority, threatening to take her complaint to senior police officials to ensure such stops are conducted within proper guidelines.
