Dangote Is a Killer, Nigeria Is Dead’ — Pyhna Alleges Negligence, Cover-Up
By Adeyemi Obadimu
Former reality TV star and social commentator, Ijeoma Josephina Otabor, popularly known as Pyhna, has made explosive allegations against Dangote Group, accusing the conglomerate of negligence, abuse of influence, and an alleged cover-up following a fatal incident involving her sister.
In a strongly worded public statement that has since gone viral, Pyhna alleged that while international boxing star Anthony Joshua was immediately flown out of Nigeria following a recent road accident, her sister was allegedly held for 21 days under what she described as bureaucratic excuses and deliberate obstruction.
“So Anthony Joshua was flown out immediately, but Dangote kept my sister for 21 days saying she needed a certificate to fly,” Pyhna stated.
The visibly distraught media personality went further to accuse the industrial giant of what she described as systemic recklessness, alleging the use of underage drivers and manipulation of grieving family members in the aftermath of the tragedy.
“Dangote is a killer and employ underage drivers. They manipulated the gullible family members,” she alleged.
Pyhna described the situation as a grim reflection of deep-rooted inequality and injustice in the country, declaring, “Nigeria is dead,” as she mourned victims she believes were failed by both corporate power and state institutions.
Although Dangote Group has not officially responded to the allegations as of the time of filing this report, the claims have sparked outrage on social media, with Nigerians calling for an independent investigation, corporate accountability, and transparency.
Legal analysts note that the allegations, if proven, raise serious questions about corporate responsibility, emergency response protocols, and the treatment of victims from less-privileged backgrounds.
Human rights advocates are now urging regulatory agencies, including the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) and relevant law-enforcement bodies, to urgently probe the claims to establish the facts surrounding the incident.
For Pyhna, however, the issue goes beyond one family.
“Nigeria is dead,” she repeated, a statement that has since become a rallying cry for many who believe justice is often determined by wealth and influence.
