Dangote Group Plc has pledged full support and compensation for Mrs. Ruth Otabor, sister of Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner, Ijeoma “Phyna” Otabor, who was injured in a recent accident involving one of its trucks in Auchi, Edo State.
Springnews reports that the accident occurred last week along the Auchi axis, leaving Mrs. Otabor hospitalised at the Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital. Eyewitnesses said the incident caused heavy traffic before emergency responders and security personnel arrived.
In a statement on Thursday, Dangote Cement Plc said senior officials, alongside its insurance team, promptly visited the scene, engaged with law enforcement, and met the victim and her family at the hospital.
The company assured comprehensive medical care, appropriate compensation, and ongoing support in line with its welfare policy, while also working with relevant authorities to investigate the accident.
