The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has arraigned social media influencer, Okoro Blessing, popularly known as Blessing CEO, before a Lagos Special Offences Court over an alleged N69.15 million fraud.

The anti-graft agency disclosed on Tuesday that the influencer was arraigned before Justice R.A. Oshodi of the Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos, on a fresh two-count charge bordering on obtaining money by false pretence and stealing.

According to the EFCC, Blessing CEO allegedly obtained N69.15 million from Hope Chiropractic Health Clinic Limited by falsely claiming ownership of a property located at No. 1 Tunbosun Osobu Street, Lekki, which she purportedly leased to the company for five years.

The commission also accused her of dishonestly converting the sum to her personal use.
