Blessing CEO arraigned over alleged N69.1m fraud case as court grants her N10m bail in another case

Blessing Nkiruka Okoro, a social media influencer and self-acclaimed relationship therapist, was arraigned again on Tuesday, June 9, 2026, by the Lagos Zonal Directorate 1 of the EFCC. The mum-of-two, popularly called Blessing CEO, was arraigned before Justice R.A. Oshodi of the Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos, on a two-count charge bordering on obtaining money by false pretence and stealing to the tune of N69,150,000 (Sixty-nine million, one hundred and fifty thousand naira). At the commencement of the proceedings, the prosecution counsel, C. C. Okezie, urged the court to proceed with the arraignment, arguing that the defendant had been duly served with the charge. However, the defence counsel, Nkama Nneka, informed the court that service of the charge had only recently been effected. In his ruling, Justice Oshodi held that the arraignment should proceed in accordance with the law, hence the charges were subsequently read to the defendant in court. Blessing CEO was also granted N10 million bail in a separate case where she is facing a two-count charge filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Lagos Zonal Directorate 1, bordering on obtaining money by false pretence and stealing to the tune of N36 million. She was arraigned on May 15, 2026, over allegations that she obtained the sum from a petitioner under false pretence of leasing a property in Lekki, Lagos. The matter was adjourned to June 5 for hearing of her bail application, but after arguments from both the prosecution and defence, Justice Dipeolu reserved ruling for Tuesday, June 9. At the resumed hearing today, the court granted her N10 million bail. This comes as Blessing CEO continues to battle legal troubles following allegations that she fraudulently obtained and diverted millions of naira.The post Blessing CEO arraigned over alleged N69.1m fraud case as court grants her N10m bail in another case appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
