BREAKING: BBNaija Star, Phyna’s Sister Ruth Otabor Who Was Hit By Dangote Truck, Has D!ed

Ruth Otabor, the sister of Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner Phyna, has tragically d!ed.

She passed away following a tragic accident involving a Dangote truck near Auchi Polytechnic in Edo State.

The family announced her de@th on Sunday through a statement by Eko Solicitors & Advocates, stating that Ruth passed on Sunday at about 6:30 a.m.

“With a heavy heart, the family regrets to announce the passing on to glory of their daughter, sister, and mother on this 31st Day of August, 2025 at about 06:30Hrs,” the statement read.

The incident occurred on August 13, 2025, just six days after Ruth graduated from the polytechnic, and resulted in the amputation of her leg.

According to eyewitnesses, the heavy-duty truck crushed her leg before it was eventually stopped by a bystander.

Phyna had been demanding justice for her sister, accusing the company of negligence and vowing not to let the matter be swept under the carpet.

Dangote Group had accepted responsibility for the incident, promising comprehensive medical care and appropriate compensation to Ruth’s family.

However, Phyna expressed outrage after the company’s staff posted photos of her injured sister online without permission.

Ruth’s passing has sparked an outpouring of emotions, with fans and fellow celebrities mourning her loss and calling for justice.

The family has requested privacy as they mourn and will communicate funeral arrangements in due course.

“The family is presently grieving and will appreciate to be given a private moment to mourn the departed.

“The funeral arrangement will be communicated to the public in due course,” the statement added.

Israel DMW roasts Phyna amidst clash with Verydarkman

Davido’s logistics aide, Isreal DMW, has weighed in on the ongoing feud between Phyna and social media critic, Verydarkman (VDM), berating the reality star for being a hypocrite.

The drama began after VDM accused Phyna of betrayal, claiming she turned against him despite seeking his help during her public faceoff with Dangote Group, following her sister’s accident involving one of the company’s trucks.

Reacting via his Instagram story, Isreal accused Phyna of double standards. He recalled how she once leaked his phone number online, but is now slamming VDM for allegedly leaking their private conversations.

It would be recalled that Isreal previously clashed with Phyna, warning her to stay away from his ex-wife after photos of them vacationing together in Mauritius surfaced online following his divorce.

Social media users have since blasted the 30BG crew member for inserting himself in a sensitive topic, while others agreed with him.

@nelly_7358 reacted, “But Isreal this is not the right time for this. Personally I no like phyna but men she’s going through a lot, she’s emotionally drained and needs moral support from us.”

Another user, @nosakaduna01 added, “She get 64g memory so she dun forget….. very senseless person.”

The same medical team that gave me this one. That gave me this one. And insurance. I was surprised like insurance. I mean… Like, I don’t know, but I said, okay, cool. I said, cool. Engaging the doctors already on treatment plan for Ruth. We would be guided by medical option of what is best for Ruth at all time. Now, this one vex me. Do you know why this vexed me? Because, hello, we had an agreement that we are only bringing my sister to Lagos. So they will be stabilizing her while we prepare to travel. That was our agreement. I already asked the hospital’s MD if my sister can be moved. He said yes. That should be what you should be asking. Like I said, she cannot be treated in Nigeria. So that’s the question you all should be asking. He now replied, he said, please, can we have the medical report from Lagoon that says they cannot handle roots in their facility? Please, see, I don’t want parao. Because why I told him, I’m like, I should tell hospital to write me a medical report that states they cannot handle my sister. Now see the hospital, they are good. I feel they can handle about, sir, we need to fly my sister out. And I made an instance that, sir, if you have a child, and your child is in the best hospital in Nigeria, and you, you still decide to fly your child, you don’t tell the hospital to write that they cannot handle your sister. Why are you even stressing me? What the fuck? If Dangote’s child is sick, do they wait for medical reports to tell them to treat the girl in Nigeria? My sister’s lungs, there is fluid. Her reproductive organ is crushed. Her bladder is busted. We are praying every day for her to get to the next day. And you’re trying to outsmart me. You’re trying to play me. You’re trying to make me feel like I’m not smart or I don’t know what I’m saying. Bust my head, finish. After this man said that last thing, he did not reply my message again. This was where he said, please I should get a medical report from Lagoon that says they cannot handle her. After we already had an agreement that my sister was just going to be in Lagoon, seal, all documents to fly her are ready. And now, this one will never even talk of other demands will follow. This one I just make her focus on her medical first. That’s what me I’m trying to make clear. I cannot use my sister’s life to gamble. Now, I think I will share my demands with you….”

VeryDarkMan storms Auchi, blocks Dangote trucks over unpaid medical bills of accident victim

Social activist Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), on Monday led a protest in Auchi, Edo State, blocking Dangote trucks from plying the roads until the company takes responsibility for accident victims.

In videos shared online, the activist was seen addressing a large crowd of students, insisting that Dangote must not only settle Ruth’s medical bills but also provide compensation for other victims of similar accidents.

The protest came on the heels of another tragic incident involving a Dangote truck.

Dangote Group Abandoned Student Crushed by Company’s Truck for 11 Months — VeryDarkMan

A popular social media activist and commentator, Martins Otse aka VeryDarkMan has called out Dangote Group.
He alleged that Dangote group abandoned a 22-year-old lady in Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital in Auchi, Edo State, after she was crushed by the company’s truck driver.
VeryDarkman stated this in a post on Instagram while sharing a video of the hospitalised victim at the hospital on Monday.
According to him, the victim, whose name was not disclosed, has been at the Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital with hospital bills of over N5 million.
He noted that he joined the protest against the movement of Dangote’s truck in Auchi.
The activist demanded that all victims of Dangote’s truck should be taken care of by the firm’s management.
“On reaching the Irrua specialist teaching hospital in Auchi, Edo State, we met an abandoned victim of Dangote’s reckless unlicensed driver, a 22-year-old girl, whom was going for her project and was crushed. She has been in the hospital for 11 months with bills of over 5 million naira; Dangote has abandoned her.
 
“Let the world know that we will not be allowing any Dangote trucks today in Auchi if all victims of Dangote’s unlicensed truck drivers are not properly taken care of @dangotegroup. @aliko_dangotegcon, We can’t fight you; you are the richest man in Africa, and you command security agencies. We are only telling you to take responsibility,” he wrote.
Meanwhile, Dangote Group is yet to respond to the allegation as of the time of filing this report.
This comes days after Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner Phyna Otabor called out Dangote Group after her sister, Ruth, was crushed by the company’s truck in the same Auchi area of Edo State.
But Dangote Group, three days ago in a statement, pledged to take care of all medical bills of Ruth Otabor.
The accidents involving Dangote Group’s trucks is coming at the time its refinery plans to deploy 4,000 brand-new compressed natural gas trucks for direct fuel distribution nationwide.
However, the scheme initially planned to begin on 15th August has yet to kick off.
The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, IPMAN, has said that truck numbering is the reason Dangote Refinery failed to commence its fuel and diesel distribution scheme on Friday, August 15, 2025.
The report confirmed that Dangote Refinery had taken delivery of a number of shipments of the trucks.
