Blessing CEO rejected the claims outright, telling Ogala:

"Yes, mama, I don't smoke, I don't drink and I don't even party."

She went on to question the credibility of those circulating the stories, suggesting that much of what was said about her online came from people who had never encountered her in real life.

"Most times the internet just has a way of enjoying themselves; a lot of people don't even know me in person," she said.

Blessing CEO denies authorising fundraiser

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Blessing CEO confirmed her son Bryan Onyedikachi’s death while in custody but denied authorising Amira Agiye to announce the news or raise money in her name.

Speaking with Nollywood actress Doris Ogala, she said she should have been the one to announce her son’s death, contradicting the ₦56 million fundraising appeal.

Doris Ogala subsequently urged donors to request refunds, claiming Blessing was already close to completing her bail process.
