Dangote Replies Phyna Over Her Sister’s Medical Treatment Abroad

Big Brother Naija reality star Phyna has shared an update on her dispute with Dangote Group concerning her sister’s medical treatment.

The reality TV star had earlier raised concerns after her younger sister, Ruth, was involved in an accident on August 13, 2025, when she was struck by a truck belonging to Dangote’s company. The accident led to the amputation of Ruth’s left leg.

In her latest Instagram post, Phyna shared a screenshot of a message she received from the company, which assured her family that it would support Ruth’s medical treatment abroad and explore all available medical options once doctors confirm she is fit to travel.

The message read: “Good morning Phyna. We received the Medical Reports you sent. We are happy your Family are also liaising with the Medical team handling Ruth. Please note that we are ready to positively consider all options necessary for treatment of Ruth as soon as she is certified fit to travel.”

Phyna, in her caption, thanked everyone who spoke up on behalf of her sister and said she hoped the company would keep its word.

“Thank you to everyone that lend their voice. We pray they keep to it. We will not forget to update you all my helpers,” she wrote.
