Sandra Iheuwa, the babymama of talent manager Ubi Franklin, has called for the arrest of Blessing CEO.
In an Instagram post, she noted how her aunt died of stage 4 breast cancer, and she watched her suffer until her last breath. She said she saw firsthand what this disease does to a human being, the pain, the physical changes, and the emotional weight on the entire family.
As such, it is deeply disturbing to her that Blessing claimed to have it as part of a Monday publicity-raising narrative. She called her action beyond unacceptable.
“My father’s sister, my aunt, died of stage 4 cancer, and I watched her suffer until her last breath. I saw firsthand what this disease does to a human being: the pain, the physical changes, the emotional weight on the entire family. It is an experience that never leaves you. Even now, it shapes how I think and how I respond to anything related to cancer.
That is why it is deeply disturbing to hear Blessing CEO claiming to have stage 4 breast cancer as part of a money-raising charity or publicity narrative. This is beyond unacceptable. Cancer isn’t a tool for content, sympathy, or financial gain. It is a life-threatening illness that millions of people are genuinely battling every single day, while families watch their loved ones suffer in real pain.
There are real patients right now fighting for survival, going through chemotherapy, losing strength, dignity, and hoping for just one more chance at life. Turning something like that into a story for attention crosses a serious moral line.
I lost my aunt to this disease. My family carries that pain forever. So I cannot stay silent when cancer is treated lightly or allegedly used in ways that disrespect the suffering of real patients.
Rest in peace, Auntie.
Blessing CEO needs to be locked up and keys thrown away. The world will be a better place”.
Recall that a week ago, Blessing cried out to Nigerians over her stage 4 battle with cancer. In an Instagram video, she revealed that she was scared and tired of being strong while she was going gradually.
During an interview on Arise TV, a Nigerian medical doctor, Dr Adefunke Arowolo, exposed Blessing for fabricating her cancer result. While on the show, Blessing presented a medical report, which turned out to be the same viral document a family is currently suing her over, unknowingly to her, that the doctor contacted the said doctor whose name appeared on the document.
In another interview with Egugun, Blessing said she can never apologise to Nigerians for receiving money from them, and revealed that she made N13 million through the donations. Blessing clarified that it wasn’t her fault that she exaggerated because she relied on what the doctor told her about the cancerous lumps in her breast; however, it wasn’t true.
The doctor, whom Blessing CEO claimed diagnosed her with breast cancer, in a press statement through the Nigerian Medical Association (Delta State Branch), said he never issued any medical report to Blessing and confirmed that he resides in Asaba, contrary to her claim that he lives in Enugu. The Medical Association confirmed that Blessing doctored the result and called on authorities to do the needful and protect the unsuspecting members of the public from being taken advantage of.
Similarly, Georgina Onuoha had also called for her arrest, calling her behaviour troubling and outright unacceptable. She said the therapist crossed the bar by soliciting donations, and noted how Blessing played on people’s emotions by appealing to their sympathy.
Tackling her, Sarah Martins said Blessing has no cancer and was pulling a stunt to raise money for her partner, IVD’s business. She claimed the couple are broke and is trying to gain sympathy and empathy from Nigerians.
In another post, she questioned what Nigerians expected from a woman who built her brand with lies. She described the relationship therapist as a criminal who wants to manipulate gullible Niegrians with cancer.
Also, reacting, Nkechi Blessing had questioned what people expected of someone who claimed another’s building as their own. She noted how, for years, people mistook her for the relationship therapist and made it seem like being named ‘Blessing’ is a curse.
