Blessing CEO Returns to Instagram, Deletes Cancer Claim Posts 

Controversial Nigerian social media influencer, Blessing Okoro Nkiruka, popularly known as Blessing CEO, has returned to Instagram weeks after deactivating her account following widespread backlash over her claim that she was battling stage four breast cancer.

A check on her verified page shows that the influencer has now deleted all posts related to the alleged diagnosis, including videos, interviews, and fundraising content that were previously used to support her claim.

The controversy began in January 2026 when Blessing CEO publicly announced that she had been diagnosed with stage four breast cancer, appealing for financial assistance from the public. She also shared what she described as a medical report to back her claim.

However, the development took a turn after Xinus Medical Diagnostics reportedly disputed the authenticity of the document, alleging that it had been altered. The medical facility claimed the report originally belonged to another individual and was not issued to the influencer.

The alleged original owner of the medical record, a makeup artist and cancer survivor identified as Deborah Mbara, later spoke out, accusing Blessing CEO of using her medical documents without consent.

Following the controversy, Mbara’s family reportedly petitioned the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), accusing the influencer of fraudulent fundraising, forgery, and cyber-related offences, and alleging that over ₦300 million may have been raised from the public under false pretences.

The Nigerian Cancer Society also called for a thorough investigation into the matter, urging authorities to ensure transparency and accountability in all public fundraising linked to health conditions.

Blessing CEO subsequently deactivated her Instagram account as the backlash intensified. However, she has now reactivated the account, though all cancer-related posts have been removed, leaving only a documentary-style awareness post on breast health.

As of the time of filing this report, the influencer has not issued any fresh public statement addressing the allegations or explaining the deletion of the posts following her return to social media.

The situation continues to generate debate online, raising concerns about online fundraising transparency, influencer accountability, and medical misinformation in Nigeria’s digital space.

‘Why Are You Angry?’ — Peter Okoye Questions Critics Over Birthday Shift

Nigerian music star Peter Okoye has strongly responded to critics questioning his decision to shift his birthday celebration from November 18 to November 30, making it clear that the move is personal and not open to public debate.

The Afrobeats star and member of the defunct duo P-Square had earlier announced that he would no longer accept goodwill messages or gifts on November 18. Instead, he urged fans, friends, and associates to recognize November 30 as his official celebration date going forward.

Reacting to the backlash on social media platform X, the singer expressed surprise at the level of outrage his decision generated. He questioned why many Nigerians were bothered by a private choice that does not directly affect them. In his words, critics were reacting “like say I cancel Christmas,” adding that even the date of Christmas itself remains a subject of global debate.

The Nigerian singer further criticized what he described as misplaced priorities, noting that the attention surrounding his birthday shift appeared to outweigh discussions about more pressing national concerns. According to him, it was “funny” that such a personal matter could spark widespread debate while serious issues affecting the country receive less engagement.

Okoye also addressed the wave of insults trailing the announcement, stating that criticism would not diminish his success or achievements. He maintained that those who have already attained success remain unaffected by public opinion, emphasizing confidence in his career and personal journey.

Born on November 18 alongside his twin brother Paul Okoye, Peter rose to fame as part of P-Square, one of Africa’s most successful music groups in the 2000s and early 2010s. The duo achieved massive continental and international recognition before their split, with both brothers pursuing solo careers.

Although the singer has not given detailed reasons for moving his birthday, the decision has sparked conversations online, with fans speculating about possible personal motivations. However, Okoye has consistently maintained that the change reflects his individual choice and should be respected without controversy.

The Peter Okoye birthday change controversy continues to trend across social media, highlighting how celebrity decisions often attract intense public scrutiny in Nigeria’s digital space.
