I lied about having cancer to raise money – Blessing CEO

Popular social media figure Blessing Okoro, widely recognized as Blessing CEO, has admitted to falsely claiming she had breast cancer in order to solicit financial donations from the public. She revealed this during an interview with social media activist Martins Vincent Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan. Okoro explained that the pressure she was experiencing led her to resort to the "cancer drama" as a way to avoid potential embarrassment.

She claimed she found a lump in her breast during a medical check-up, although it was not cancerous. Instead of coming out directly to ask for funds, she leveraged the discovery by telling the public that the lump was cancerous. Initially, she suggested selling personal belongings like her car and house to gather donations, but the fundraising efforts ceased when VeryDarkMan challenged her claims and asked for evidence.
