Actress and winner of Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) season 7, Ijeoma Josephina Otabor, better known as Phyna, has expressed outrage and grief over her sister Ruth’s tragic death, which she claims was calculated and planned.
In a series of emotional posts on Instagram, the BBNaija star accused Dangote Group, of being insensitive and irresponsible in their handling of her sister’s burial expenses.
“Also on Sept 13th, the day of burial, Dangote groups did not pick up all calls made to them from us, as we were told the bills were not paid, but they claim it was, the mortuary was also covered by the family,” she said.
According to Phyna, Dangote Group covered only her sister’s bills at Lagoon Hospital, while the family paid other bills without reimbursement.
“The bills from Auchi down to Irrua were covered by the family; no refund has been made.

According to Phyna, the company did not answer calls on the day of the burial, despite claiming to have settled all hospital bills.
Phyna went further by revealing a letter sent to her father by Dangote Group, asking him to acknowledge receipt of funds for burial expenses.
She claimed the company impersonated her father by writing the letter themselves and sending it to him to sign.
She questioned why the company didn’t ask the family for an acknowledgement letter instead of drafting one themselves.
She said: “This letter that was sent to my dad this evening is really paining me, like @dangotegroup you killed my sister, do massive PR, una give the girl papa money for burial, una con still by una self write acknowledgement letter impersonating my father and you sent to him to sign, so that una plan of after burial nothing else go stand because by then the man go don sign this letter.
“@dangotegroup, if you needed an acknowledgement letter or receipt for the funds you sent for the burial, you would have kindly asked for the acknowledgement letter from the family, and then we would have provided it. Why typing as my dad? And sending it to him to sign.
“This should never happen again. If you need something, you ask, as you have always done, because since you can type the letter for us, that means a lot of papers you were asking for while the girl was alive, you would have been able to type it then. Right now, it seems everything was well calculated”.
