EFCC Re-Arraigns Blessing CEO Over Alleged N13m Cancer Fraud

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has again arraigned controversial self-acclaimed relationship expert, Blessing CEO.

Blessing CEO was brought before the Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos State on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, over alleged N13 million fraud linked to a cancer fundraising scheme and falsification of a cancer diagnosis report.

The arraignment followed multiple petitions from individuals and organisations, including the Nigeria Cancer Society.

In a statement shared on Instagram, the EFCC said it filed “a fresh six count charge bordering on obtaining money by false pretence and retaining the proceeds”.

“The petitioners allegedly made donations to the defendant after her posts claiming that she was battling Stage 4 breast cancer.

“She was, however, later discovered to have allegedly falsified the document she presented to members of the public,” the commission added.

The development comes less than 24 hours after Blessing CEO was arraigned over an alleged N69.1 million tenancy fraud case.
