Former Big Brother Naija star Natacha Akide, popularly known as Tacha, has weighed in on the recent accident involving a Dangote truck and Ruth, the sister of reality star Phyna.
Ruth, who had celebrated her graduation just six days before the incident, lost her leg in the crash caused by a truck reportedly driven by an underage operator.
Following widespread outrage, the Dangote Group issued a statement confirming that a company representative had visited Ruth, offered their well-wishes, and provided compensation.

Tacha, however, urged that the company should do far more. She stressed that in developed countries, such negligence attracts strict consequences and higher accountability.
Tacha said:
“It’s high time the Dangote group starts paying heavily for the recklessness of their drivers. They ought to pay $10 million in compensation to Ruth even though it won’t bring back her leg.”
Her comments have fueled further conversations online, with many echoing the call for stricter measures and greater responsibility from the company.
