Ruth Otabor, the younger sister of Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner, Ijeoma Josephina Otabor, popularly known as Phyna, has reportedly been laid to rest following her tragic passing.

Ruth died after being involved in a road accident that allegedly involved a Dangote truck. The incident left her with severe injuries, and despite efforts to save her, she did not survive.

The Dangote Group has been reported to have assisted in evacuating her remains after the crash. While investigations into the exact circumstances of the incident are still ongoing, the development has sparked conversations about road safety and the recurring involvement of heavy-duty trucks in fatal accidents across Nigeria.

Ruth’s death has left her family, friends, and fans of Phyna in deep mourning. Many have taken to social media to share condolence messages, offering prayers and support to the Otabor family during this difficult period.

Phyna, who rose to fame after winning the Big Brother Naija “Level Up” edition in 2022, has yet to make a detailed public statement, but close associates confirm she is deeply devastated by the loss.

The burial reportedly took place today, with family members calling for privacy as they grieve the sudden tragedy.

May Ruth’s soul rest in peace.

Nigerian Afrobeats singer Naira Marley faced a tense moment during his concert in Benin Republic when an angry fan stormed the stage in what appeared to be an attempted attack.

Eyewitnesses said the fan, believed to be a supporter of the late singer Mohbad, rushed at Marley mid-performance before security quickly intervened. The incident briefly disrupted the show but Marley later returned to continue his set.

The intrusion has reignited public debate over Marley’s alleged involvement in Mohbad’s death in 2023. Although Marley was cleared in court of accusations linking him to the tragedy, the episode underscores lingering anger among some fans who remain unconvinced of his innocence.

Mohbad, a former signee of Marley’s Marlian Music label, died under controversial circumstances in September 2023. His death sparked nationwide protests and widespread accusations of abuse and intimidation within the industry.

Saturday’s concert clash highlights the ongoing tensions between Marley’s supporters and Mohbad’s loyal fan base, two years after the late singer’s passing.

However Naira Marly posted the video on his X handle clarifying that he was never attacked rather that the fan was aggressive.
