Dangote will hop on a private jet without blinking, cross continents just to show face at Otedola’s wedding, then glide into Davido’s in the same weekend.
But every single day his trucks are mowing down Nigerians, and not a single word about safer trucking.


The attitude is clear: if you die, you die.

When Dangote Group claimed they would “fly her out once certified to travel,” I knew it was empty billionaire grammar. Air ambulances lift unconscious patients every single day , so if they truly wanted, she’d have been flown. That statement was just a polite way of saying, “If she survives, we’ll make it look good.”

So really , to what end are billions and trillions if basic humanity is abandoned? Where does chasing endless zeros while bodies pile up on Nigerian highways make sense?

This should be the line in the sand, a moment to confront the carnage of Dangote’s trucking empire. Nigerians have shouted for years about his trucks spilling blood on our roads. Now with petrol haulage being added to the mix, the disaster will only multiply.

Enough of the silence. Enough of the damage.
You made sense. Chevron had one air ambulance. I once announced the opportunity here when they needed a certified air ambulance nurse. I shared same vacancy on major social media platform but I was unable to get one for chevron, for months. In a country of over 200m population(official) fa, no single air ambulance nurse could be found. I wonder which kain course our people dey study sef.

Air ambulance nurses,
Emergency Response Personnel,
Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineers,
Biomedical Engineers, etc are hot cakes.

Sadly, people are too blind to see them. Instead, they'd be going for anyhow courses just because they want to enter a university. Time is invaluable fa

Someone should explain how a leg amputation can lead to death when the person does not suffer from diabetes.
Show some respect to the dead.

Nigeria social media would buzz tomorrow. Those who got involved didn't handle the issue well.

VDM and the sister really messed up. A life was at stake and they were doing those shenanigans on social media accusing each other.
Are you doing this deliberately or it's just the way you think?
VDM has done more than is expected, he should just back down now. The Victim's sister did not follow through with their agreement to take on Dangote together, she decided to do it alone, how is that VDM's fault?
VDM already put his life on the line for this Dangote fight, I feel he has done enough. We all have the responsibility to fight collectively for our safety and wellbeing. VDM is not the only Nigerian to do all the fighting for us. He is no superman, he is just a young man with courage and good spirit.
Let's all learn to fight for what is right or we remain the way we are.

This is Nigeria.

Apart from equipment, the doctors are overwhelmingly incompetent and on top of that they do not give a shit about their patients.

Visit public hospitals, observe and weep.

Even Evercare in Lekki, with the millions they charge is a piece of garbage.

I know what I am saying.
A public hospital in Kaduna is allegedly charging patients to buy hand gloves, syringe, and sometimes have to pay money to be treated.

Sometimes am tempted to say this nation is cursed

See eh oga, I don't know Dangote. I have never work in his company or subsidiary. But let's stop this blame game of only Dangote trucks.
They're many other trailers company causing accidents on our road on a daily but majority always take it to be Dangote trucks.
And let's also leave the trucks alone, why are we always pointing fingers at the man himself when he has numerous supervisors and managers handling most of his companies.
This our always blaming the man himself is unnecessary honestly.

Dangote is associated with the government and their trucks kill people for sport. All his trucks are insured but the lifes they take aren't insured.

If you die you die

How, if I may ask, did you arrive at the conclusion that she died due to the amputation?

UCH Ibadan does the same. Plus the surgical gown used by the doctors.

Be careful with your utterances.
They might haunt you.
I understand that you might be emotional about the whole situation but you need to thread cautiously.

Why didn't Phyna airlift her sister and Sue Dangote ? Why wait? Now the sister don die. All these people sef.
I believe to you airlifting a patient comes with little or no cost? U better do your research to know the cost .
Moreover Phyna U did mention likely can't afford such expenses .

How much does she have the #60m bbnaija money she won must have finished by now. Flying her sister abroad with private jet ambulance will sure cost thousands of dollars.

Oh! What a level of ignorance?
Na wa o! What if there were other organs affected? We go to know of amputation because the leg was directly crushed... What if there were other internal injuries? What of infection? What if the lady herself just lost the will to continue living?

I hope I have now enlightened you

So called African richest man!
I don't care about the rest things you said but where I am concern is: why do you guys think it's only Dangote trailers that causes accident and kill people on a daily.
They're many non Dangote trailers causing havoc too. Even our president Tinubu's new trailer venture TSL do cause accident. But bcus Dangote's own is more popular and pronounce, you guys will always harp on it to discredit the man.
And more over the man himself doesn't know most of his employees and drivers except the top managers and supervisors.
And he may not even know they're short changing the workers sef.
So this our always blaming the man is unnecessary. I'm not one of his workers, I am not from North, I haven't benefitted anything from him, but let's say the truth for once.
Re: Phyna Sister, Ruth Otabor Dies After Dangote Truck Accident by Nobody: 8:43pm On Aug 31, 2025
How?

I have listed specific instances…You should be as specific so I can judge if your statement has any merit.

Why didn't they raise funds first instead of waiting for Dangote. At least VDM could have used his platform to do that

How much was they even expected from Dangote? Flying abroad plus the medical.
Pick a side man..... Good or bad..... One day you are berating VDM for fixing a bad road and another day you are blaming him for not using the same platform that gave him the money for the road to save a life..... Abi the 30k never drop till now?
Re: Phyna Sister, Ruth Otabor Dies After Dangote Truck Accident by PricelessGem1: 8:50pm On Aug 31, 2025
Dangote group have finally killed this lady. How could they still be planning advance payment in India over an incident that happened since 13th August 2025? If they really wanted to help her, they would have flown her on Air ambulance to India or any other country that could competently handle her case. If it was any of Dangote's daughters that was in this situation, Dangote would have done just that and more. May God deliver us from evil o.

Even the state of the hospital as seen in the picture calls to question the kind of medical treatment she received. How sad to lost such a young gem.Would not be surprised if there was an infection. Nigerian hospital's and carelessness.

When I say Dangote, it’s not personal. The point is separating the individual from the corporate brand when disasters strike, yet his name alone makes the billionaire lists, this feels like dodging accountability. His fleet of trucks has a notorious record for reckless and deadly accidents, some vehicles barely roadworthy. Claiming “he’s not the only one” doesn’t excuse a crime, just because others misbehave doesn’t make it right. Even with layers of managers and supervisors, the ultimate responsibility rests with him. Think of Tinubu with all his ministers and governors; we still hold him accountable for Nigeria’s failures. The government must craft strict, decisive policies to shield citizens from this chaos. It’s only going to worsen, especially with these same trucks now carrying refined petroleum nationwide. I pray no one’s car is hit and set ablaze, but before that tragedy, we must raise our voices to demand the sanctification and strict oversight of the entire trucking sector.

Very heartbreaking 💔...

Dangote group has to compensate generously to ease this great pain a bit.

A lot of other things could have happened... Sepsis, internal bleeding, embolism, organ failure, etc.

We only heard about the amputation part because thats the most obvious one.
exactly bro... Doctors might even have advise against airlifting and taking her abroad..... Had a sister who had similar case... D doctors didn't clear her

She could have been transferred to a better hospital within Nigeria, but instead, she was left to die. No one could realistically survive multiple long‑bone fractures in that facility. She should have been moved to a tertiary hospital in Nigeria, or at least had access to teleconsultations with foreign specialists. She was given no fighting chance. She was abandoned to die.

Right now, the richest man in Africa has just ended someone’s life and he’s being doing it for years

And yes we will call him out because it’s ironic and a thing of shame that someone that’s meant to be a thing of blessing to Nigeria is the one causing so much pain to them
