Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner, Ijeoma Josephina Otabor, popularly known as Phyna, has sparked controversy after making a bold accusation against Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote.

The reality TV star alleged that the billionaire may have had a hand in the sudden death of her sister, Ruth Otabor.

Phyna, who recently returned to Instagram after her sister’s burial, expressed deep suspicion over the circumstances surrounding Ruth’s passing. In an emotional video, she claimed:

“My mind is telling me that Dangote’s company told the hospital to inject my sister so that she would die.”

While the BBNaija star did not provide concrete evidence to back up her claims, she insisted that her instincts strongly pointed toward foul play.

The video has since stirred heated reactions online, with fans and critics weighing in on Phyna’s shocking allegations.

I don't know who advises this girl privately but they are obviously not doing anything within the neighborhood of a good job in giving her good advice from the look of things. It's challenging to reconcile her profound loss with her unwavering focus on the financial aspect. One would expect the emotional weight of her sister's passing to be paramount, yet the primary narrative she's advancing continues to be about the money. This creates an unfortunate perception that greed is overshadowing grief, which ultimately undermines her credibility.

My concern is that by declaring a 'war' on a corporate giant like Dangote, she is setting herself up for a devastating loss. Dangote deals with such claims routinely and has the financial and legal power to outlast any individual. Countless other families receive a fraction of what she has been offered. While the money is important, no amount of it is worth a futile, drawn-out fight that prevents her from truly moving forward. It's time to step back from the conflict and prioritize personal closure. This is Nigeria not the USA.

So now the focus is on the 90 million dollars that was promised. Sigh… it feels like your sister is being used as a business venture to make more money. This whole case is unclear and has many loopholes. Any allegations, like claims of someone being injected, need to be resolved in court — let the legal system sort it out properly.

I just hope this doesn’t become another distraction, because there are already so many pressing issues in Nigeria that need attention.

Instead of wasting time ranting online, it’s always better to follow the proper and legal procedure. Explaining yourself to online in-laws is like pouring water into a basket—it will never hold. No matter how much you try, they will twist your words, misinterpret your intentions, and still judge you unfairly. So rather than exhausting yourself trying to convince strangers on the internet, focus on doing things the right way through the appropriate channels. In the end, actions speak louder than endless explanations. RIP 🕊️ Ruth 💔

Make she sha calm down.

I said it then, Dangote is a group, it has a board and there are several subsidiary companies who go about with Dangote emblem on their trucks.

She will be disappointed greatly except Dangote himself decides to just be benevolent which he has the capacity.

The more reason she needs to calm the hell down.

Na so she drag BBNaija on top Money issue.
