Blessing CEO said she had discovered a lump in her frontal after undergoing a medical examination.

However, she claimed further findings established that the lump was not cancerous.

Despite this, she presented her condition to the public as cancer, admitting that her decision was deliberate.

Blessing CEO explains why she made the claim

During the interview, Blessing CEO described her actions as an emotional game, acknowledging that she wanted people to support her financially.

She said:

“I played an emotional game. I did not have cancer. I had a lump in my frontal, but it was not cancerous. I deliberately told the public that the lump was cancerous because I wanted financial support.”

The therapist also recalled initially creating the impression that she was considering selling some of her personal belongings, including her car and house.

However, according to her, people encouraged her to share her account details so they could send financial assistance.

Blessing CEO said donations began arriving from different people, with supporters sending varying amounts of money.

But the fundraising campaign reportedly took a different turn after VeryDarkMan questioned her claims and demanded evidence of her cancer diagnosis.

She admitted that donations stopped shortly after the activist released a video challenging her account.
