Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner, Phyna, is mourning the loss of her sister, Ruth Otabor, who passed away in the early hours of Sunday, August 31, 2025, at about 6:30 a.m., according to a statement released by Eko Solicitors & Advocates on behalf of the Otabor family.
The statement read, “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 family has requested privacy as they grieve the painful loss.
Ruth had suffered a tragic accident weeks earlier. On Wednesday, August 13, 2025, she was hit by a truck linked to the Dangote Group near Auchi Polytechnic in Edo State. Eyewitnesses reported that the heavy-duty vehicle crushed her leg before it was eventually stopped by a bystander.
Following the news of her passing, several celebrities took to social media to express their condolences. Nollywood actress Kate Henshaw wrote, “Ehhh God, May God comfort your family at this difficult time.”
Former BBNaija housemate Wanni added, “Oh no! I’m so pained, No! No! Ruth went through too much pain, may her soul rest in peace.”
Media personality Hero Daniels said, “My sincere condolences, May God grant you and your family fortitude to bear this great loss. RIP Ruth.”
Reality TV star Daniella Peters also expressed her sympathy, writing, “Kai, so sorry Phyna, My Condolences.”
Fans and well-wishers have since flooded Phyna’s social media pages with messages of support, offering prayers and comfort to the reality star and her family during this difficult time.
