Nollywood actress Sarah Martins has publicly criticised controversial relationship expert Blessing Okoro, popularly known as Blessing CEO, following allegations that her reported cancer diagnosis was fabricated. The controversy erupted after questions emerged over the authenticity of medical documents circulated online in support of the claim.
Blessing, CEO, had earlier told followers she was battling stage four cancer and appealed for financial assistance to fund urgent treatment and surgery. The announcement triggered mixed reactions, with some sympathising and others expressing skepticism over the appeal.
Doubts intensified after an alleged test result linked to her diagnosis surfaced online, with observers noting inconsistencies and the inability to verify the laboratory details. A video later circulated claiming the document was forged, further fueling public scrutiny and debate across social media platforms.
Reacting to the development in a post on Tuesday, Martins issued a strongly worded response, describing Blessing CEO as deceptive and accusing her of misleading the public. She maintained that she had earlier questioned the claims and faced backlash from those who believed the illness was genuine.
Martins urged individuals who had donated money to demand refunds, insisting that evidence now points to a fabricated narrative. She also criticised what she described as a pattern of clout-driven behaviour, alleging that the controversy reflects a broader issue of misinformation for personal gain.
The actress additionally called out others who supported the fundraiser, including Etinosa Idemudia, questioning the speed at which funds were reportedly sent. The situation continues to generate reactions online, with renewed calls for accountability and verification in public fundraising appeals.
