The drama began days earlier when Blessing CEO posted a video crying and shaving her head, saying she had stage 4 cancer and was afraid.

She later announced she was selling her properties to raise money for treatment and went on to publicly solicit funds.

Nigerians quickly raised doubts after spotting inconsistencies in her story.

A woman named Miss Deborah Mbara alleged that the medical report Blessing CEO shared online was hers and had been edited.

The controversy deepened when a lawyer questioned her during an Instagram live with Daddy Freeze, but she could not provide clear answers.

Soon after, some donors demanded refunds, accusing her of fraud and misleading the public.

Yesterday, Oil Money, the Chief Executive Officer of Karid Oil and Gas Ltd and Oil Money Records, claimed he gave her ₦20 million and asked for his money back, giving her a 7-day ultimatum and threatening legal action if she fails to pay up.
