“You cannot build a road on the coast from Lagos to Calabar. I mean, you can’t even go through Bayelsa. Bayelsa is swamp. Even Yenagoa, the capital, is swamp. You’ll probably have to build about 100 or 200 bridges to go through those swamps.”

Alleged N69.15m Fraud: Witness Tells Court He Paid for Property Not Owned by Blessing CEO

At the continuation of the trial of social media influencer Blessing Nkiruka, (a.k.aBlessing CEO), on Monday, October 12, 2026, a prosecution witness, PW1, Dr Onuoha Okeigwe, told Justice R. A. Oshodi of the Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos, how he paid N69,150,000 for a five-year lease of a property allegedly represented to him as belonging to the influencer.

Blessing CEO was arraigned by the Lagos Zonal Directorate 1 of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on June 9, 2026, on a two-count charge bordering on obtaining money by false pretence and stealing, involving N69,150,000.

Count one reads in part: “That you, OKORO BLESSING NKIRUKA, on or about March 21, 2025, in Lagos, within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court, by false pretence and with intent to defraud, induced Hope Chiropractic Health Clinic Limited to confer a benefit of N69,150,000 (Sixty-Nine Million, One Hundred and Fifty Thousand Naira) on you under the representation that the property located at No. 1 Tunbosun Osobu Street, Lekki, belonged to you and was leased to the company for a period of five years, a representation you knew to be false.”

The alleged offence is contrary to Section 1(2) and punishable under Section 1(3) of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act.

The defendant pleaded not guilty to the charges when they were read to her.

The witness told the court that he contacted the defendant, who allegedly dismissed his concerns. The following day, a man identified as Mr Tom reportedly arrived with police officers and arrested some of the workers.

“I informed the defendant, and she claimed she did not know Mr Tom. I paid N100,000 to secure the release of my workers. Blessing still maintained that she did not know Mr Tom and that she was the owner of the property,” he said.

He also identified WhatsApp messages in which the defendant allegedly sent photographs of the building as evidence of her ownership.

The witness further told the court that he paid the defendant additional charges, including agency, legal and caution fees.

However, he maintained that the alleged misrepresentation was that the defendant was not the actual owner of the property, despite collecting N69,150,000 from him. He also stated that the defendant collected money from him and another victim for the same property.

Justice Oshodi adjourned the case until October 26, 2026, for continuation of the trial.

@afrisagacity You're just bitter cos Obi's responses were so poor and he was exposed as a very dull man here.

The lady didn't pamper him like Rufai would do.

Rubbish!

[Viva XY @VivaDido]

This makes sense a bit.

The election was marred with irregularities but for doctrine of substantial compliance.

Dear Arise Team

On Obi saying he does not have evidence

When Peter Obi said he did not have evidence, he was speaking in the strict legal sense - evidence considered by the court as strong enough to satisfy the courts and overturn the declared result. The courts, for whatever reasons, did not consider the evidence presented sufficient.

But there is a difference between legal proof and reasonable inference.

Looking at what actually happened on election day, the technology worked in other elections but stopped working for the presidential election at a point when Peter Obi was clearly leading in several results being collated. The moment they switched off the saver, the result took another dimension. This may not constitute empirical evidence sufficient to win a case in court, but it is certainly evidence from reason. It raises a legitimate question about what happened and why.

We must also recognise that Nigerian courts operate within the broader Nigerian environment, with all the imperfections and limitations of our institutions—the phenomenon commonly described as the “Nigerian factor.”

The courts determine what has been legally proved; citizens are entitled to reason about what they witnessed. A court’s inability to establish a claim to the required legal standard does not necessarily erase every reasonable question about what actually happened.

UPDATE!!!

Stephen Akintayo has now paid @Samuel_111p the 3mths salary his company was owing him..let it also be stated that he was paid #200k instead of the #230k they were owing him. I hope @drsakintayo will see to the payment of the remaining 30k because a laborer is deserving of his wage and I hope other affected staff and ex staff of GText are paid immediately!

WATCH
this woman here bought a land in Nkpor Anambra state and started developing it, the same people that sold the land attacked her, beat her to pulp, arrested and forced her to collect back the money she paid for the land, because they never knew she's an Abakaliki woman.

Dear Mr. @sowore ,

We would like to know what you're doing in that court with that suspected fraudster, TMT who is presently under trial.

Are you standing with him against his alleged victims?

[Uncle Ruckus @Emarged]

Pentecostal churches destroyed the spirit of community in Nigeria, but we are not ready for that conversation yet.

People used to share food and drinks with each other during festive periods without the fear of any household enemies or evil neighbours.

[Maruf Muhammed Esq @MarufMuhammed4]

If you are one of the staff owed salaries by @drsakintayo, speak out now and don't subscribe to any form of threat or intimidation from him, agents or privies whomsoever.

A staff being paid is not a favour, not a privilege, and not an act of generosity. It is his/her right. When a person has worked, his wage/ salary becomes a debt you owe him/her, not a gift you are giving him/her. To delay it is abrupt injustice. To cut it is oppression.
