Nigerian reality star Phyna has taken to social media to remember her sister, Ruth Otabor, who tragically passed away days after an accident involving a Dangote truck.
The former Big Brother Naija housemate took to her Instagram page on Monday afternoon to share a clip of herself and her sister as she marked the first anniversary of her death.
Sharing the video, she wrote: “31-08-2025… Dangote Group killed my sister and never looked back. The underage truck driver that killed her walks freely today. One year today… her case was swept under the carpet
“It’s been exactly one year since I lost you, my sister, and honestly, I still don’t know how to put into words what your absence has done to me. One whole year without seeing you, hearing your voice, laughing with you, or simply knowing that you were somewhere in this world.
“People say time heals, but sometimes I wonder if time really heals or if we just learn how to live with the pain. Because even after 365 days, there are moments when it still feels like yesterday. Moments when I remember you and my heart breaks all over again. There are days I wish I could just have one more conversation with you, one more hug, one more laugh, one more opportunity to tell you how much you meant to me.
“I miss you in ways I cannot explain. I miss the memories we shared, the little things that only sisters could understand, and the comfort of knowing you were here. Life has continued, but a part of me feels like it stopped the day you left.

“I wish you could see me now. I wish you could see everything happening in my life and how much I wish you were here to experience it with me. I wonder what you would say, what advice you would give me, and how proud you would be.
“Your absence has taught me that life is truly fragile and that we should never take the people we love for granted. I would give anything for just a little more time with you.
“One year has passed, but your memory remains alive in my heart. I will carry you with me for the rest of my life, in every achievement, every tear, every smile, and every moment I wish you were here.
“Sleep peacefully, my beautiful sister.
“ You are deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten. Until we meet again… I love you always.
I’m sorry I could not get you justice”

Recall that Ruth, who had just graduated from Auchi Polytechnic, suffered severe injuries and was in a coma for days, but tragically, she passed away.
Phyna struggled to get justice and proper care for her sister, but failed.
Her death prompted reactions from the Federal Road Safety Corps and other Nigerians, while Phyna continued to demand accountability over the circumstances surrounding the accident.
