The Federal High Court in Ikoyi, Lagos, has reserved its ruling on the bail application of controversial social media influencer and self-styled relationship expert, Blessing CEO, in connection with an alleged N36 million fraud case.
Justice D.I. Dipeolu adjourned the matter until June 9, 2026, after hearing submissions from both parties on Friday.
Blessing CEO, whose real name is Okoro Blessing Nkiruka, is facing a two-count charge filed by the Lagos Zonal Directorate 1 of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), bordering on alleged obtaining by false pretence and stealing.

The anti-graft agency claimed the representation was false and that the money was later diverted for personal use.
