The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has re-arraigned social media influencer Okoro Blessing Nkiruka, popularly known as Blessing CEO, over fresh allegations of thirteen million naira (N13m) fraud.
EFCC’s Lagos Zonal Directorate 2 brought the six-count charge before Justice Yelim Bogoro at the Federal High Court, Ikoyi, on Wednesday, 10 June 2026.
According to the EFCC, the case follows petitions from several individuals and groups, including the Nigeria Cancer Society (NCS).
The petitioners claimed they donated money after Blessing CEO posted online that she was battling Stage 4 breast cancer and needed financial support for treatment.
