The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the police are looking into claims of fraud and forgery against Blessing CEO.
Punch was told by the Delta State Police Command that they had received a complaint about the issue and were looking into the claims.
This comes after claims that the influencer made up a cancer diagnosis and used a fake medical report to get donations from the public.
Edefa Bright, the Police Public Relations Officer in Delta State, told the publication mentioned above, “We acknowledge the petitions; we are waiting for the complainants to come and give us their statement.” After that, we will look into it.
Dele Oyewale, the Head of Media and Publicity at the EFCC, said the same thing: “There was a petition submitted; we received it, and we are going to look into it.” Our next steps will depend on what we find.
Okoro’s claims that she was fighting cancer caused a lot of controversy. Many of her followers felt sorry for her and supported her.
However, her claims were not consistent, which led to a lot of criticism and doubt about the accuracy of the diagnosis.
The Nigerian Medical Association in Delta State said that the histology report that was linked to her was not real. They said that Xinus Medical Diagnostics in Asaba gave it to Deborah Mbara, a breast cancer survivor, on May 9, 2025, after she was sent there for a second opinion on her breast cancer.
Later, Mbara said that the influencer had changed her medical report to get donations from people.
