Self-acclaimed relationship expert Blessing Okoro has addressed the ongoing controversy surrounding her earlier claim of being diagnosed with cancer, offering her side of the story during an interview with content creator Egungun.
Speaking during the interview, Blessing CEO stated that she would not apologise to Nigerians who donated money towards her treatment.
“I will not apologize to Nigerians for receiving money from them. I was able to make just ₦13 million through the donations not N100 million,” she said.
She also explained why she has not shared her medical records publicly, maintaining that her health details are private.
“I cannot share my medical results online because they are personal,” she added.
Addressing the confusion surrounding her diagnosis, Blessing CEO said she acted based on information provided by her doctor at the time.
“It was not my fault, I relied on what the doctor told me, that my breast lumps were cancerous. I misunderstood the situation and shared that information, only to later discover that it was not cancer,” she stated.
Her comments have since sparked widespread reactions online, particularly among Nigerians who contributed financially during the period.
