Phyna Finally Breaks Silence on Viral Romance With Content Creator Kolu: “Are They Dating?”
- Viral Twitch clips showed Phyna and Kolu sharing close moments, including forehead kisses and arm-holding
- Carter Efe added fuel to the fire by claiming Kolu purchased a brand-new car for Phyna, a claim that has now been met with a surprising explanation
- Phyna stated she explicitly told Kolu to "stay away" unless he is ready to keep things strictly platonic
Reality TV star Ijeoma Josephina Otabor, popularly known as Phyna, has finally spoken up following ongoing speculation about her relationship with fast-rising content creator Kolu.
The dating rumours, which dominated livestream platforms and social media timelines for days, began after several joint appearances on Twitch where Phyna and Kolu were seen sharing playful moments that viewers quickly interpreted as something more.
Clips showing Kolu giving Phyna a forehead kiss, the pair holding each other affectionately, and exchanging soft banter led many fans to assume a romance was already in motion.

Speaking during a recent livestream, the actress dismissed the rumours, describing the entire episode as a lighthearted interaction blown out of proportion.
According to her, the chemistry viewers saw on screen was simply content, nothing deeper.
“I have told Kolu to stay away from me, so when next you see us together that means he has agreed to be friends,” she said.
She also joked that if Kolu had been the type to misbehave, Carter Efe, Kolu’s frequent collaborator, would have disciplined him immediately.
The rumours intensified after entertainer Carter Efe playfully claimed on a stream that Kolu bought a car for Phyna because of love.
Kolu later clarified that the car purchase had nothing to do with romance but was connected to his own heartbreak journey.
Phyna reaffirmed that narrative, insisting that no gifts, secret romance, or hidden affection were involved.
Phyna warns Nigerians against BBNaija
Legit.ng recalls that the ex-BBNaija winner recently shared her experience after the reality show, revealing why she no longer advises anyone to audition for the popular franchise.
Speaking during a Twitch livestream, the reality star stated that the attention that housemates enjoy while on the show rarely follows them into the real world.
She explained that the fan excitement that lifts contestants to celebrity status is short-lived.
The streamer, who recently compared her sister's death to Anthony Joshua's accident, noted that fans often recycle their loyalty, shifting their attention to new contestants each season.
Because of this, many ex-housemates find it difficult to maintain the same level of influence once they leave the house.
