Nollywood Star Sarah Martins Condemns Blessing CEO Over Cancer Test Controversy
Nollywood actress Sarah Martins has issued a scathing response to reports that relationship expert Blessing Okorie, popularly known as Blessing CEO, allegedly forged a cancer test result. The controversy erupted after Blessing CEO announced she was battling stage four cancer and appealed for financial support for treatment and surgery, sparking widespread debate and skepticism among fans and followers.
Allegations of Forgery and Public Backlash
Doubts about Blessing CEO's claims intensified when an alleged test result surfaced online, but details of the laboratory could not be verified. A subsequent video circulated, suggesting the result was forged after the supposed owner was identified. In reaction, Sarah Martins did not hold back, criticizing Blessing CEO in harsh terms and describing her actions as deceptive and criminal.
Martins stated that Blessing CEO is a liar, jobless, and a criminal who deceived unsuspecting Nigerians. She revealed that when she previously accused Blessing CEO of lying, she faced attacks from people who accused her of seeking attention. Martins emphasized that evidence exists to support her claim that the illness was fabricated, adding weight to the allegations of fraud.
Advice to Donors and Broader Implications
Martins also addressed those who donated money to Blessing CEO, advising them to demand refunds. She alleged that Blessing CEO has built her brand on lies and clout-chasing, questioning why individuals like actress Etinosa Idemudia sent money so quickly and urging them to request their funds back. "If money was needed for rent or feeding, it should have been stated clearly so people could support her honestly," Martins added, highlighting the ethical concerns in the situation.
Further, Martins warned that Blessing CEO would face consequences for misleading many Nigerians, reflecting the growing public outrage over the incident. This controversy is not isolated, as Blessing CEO's rival, Saida BOJ, had earlier questioned the authenticity of the cancer claim, adding to the scrutiny.
Public Reaction and Social Media Fallout
The news has triggered a wave of reactions on social media, with fans expressing shock and disappointment. Comments from Instagram users include:
- @ify_united: "I know she is not sick, but who go hear my own when they don't believe you, my dear, speak out no mind them."

This incident underscores broader issues of trust and accountability in public figures, especially in the entertainment and relationship advice sectors.
