The Lagos Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday arraigned social media personality and self-styled relationship therapist, Okoro Blessing Nkiruka, popularly known as Blessing CEO, over an alleged N69.1 million fraud.
She appeared before Justice R.A. Oshodi of the Special Offences Court in Ikeja, Lagos, on a two-count charge of obtaining money under false pretences and stealing, involving a total sum of N69,150,000.
At the start of the proceedings, EFCC prosecuting counsel, C.C. Okezie, asked the court to proceed with the arraignment, stating that the defendant had been properly served with the charge.
Responding, defence counsel Nkama Nneka told the court that the charge had only recently been served on her client.
Delivering his ruling, Justice Oshodi held that the arraignment should go ahead in line with legal provisions, after which the charges were read to the defendant.
Blessing CEO had previously been arraigned by the EFCC on May 15, 2026, in connection with a separate alleged fraud case involving N36 million.
