Controversial relationship expert, Blessing Okoro, popularly known as Blessing CEO, has reacted angrily to social media users who mocked her and suggested that her life should be exchanged for that of Nollywood actor, Alex Ekubo.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

News reports that Alex Ekubo reportedly passed away on May 11, 2026, after complications arising from advanced metastatic kidney cancer.

Following the news of his death, some users flooded Blessing CEO’s Instagram page with insulting comments, with a few suggesting that she should have died instead of the actor.

In a video shared on her social media page, Blessing CEO condemned the remarks, describing them as cruel and insensitive, especially given the circumstances of the actor’s death.

She questioned what she described as public hypocrisy, where people show sympathy only after someone dies but often attack and bully them while they are alive.

“How do you people sympathize with the de@d but b#lly the living? Each time someone passes away and I see how people become suddenly sympathetic, I’m always surprised. If you read the comments people make when the person is alive, you’ll be shocked. Some people were even saying things like ‘God should take Blessing CEO and give us Alexx Ekubo.’ God will punish u all!

“And for those saying his family kept everything off social media, if his pictures had been posted while he was sick, the same people would still have mocked him and said all sorts of things,” she said.

The backlash against Blessing CEO is linked to a past controversy in March, when she falsely claimed she was battling stage 4 cancer and also made claims involving the medical records of a cancer survivor.

The incident sparked widespread criticism and calls for her arrest over what many described as a fabricated story.

Nollywood actor Lanre Adediwura has opened up about the financial struggles he faced after starring in MultiChoice’s television series Wura, revealing that the project left him in a difficult economic position before YouTube eventually helped him regain stability.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Speaking during an interview on TVC Entertainment, the actor explained why he turned down an opportunity to return to the series, stating that despite the visibility the role brought him, it did not provide the financial rewards he had expected.

According to him, his involvement in the production restricted him from taking on other acting opportunities that could have significantly boosted his career.

Lanre disclosed that after leaving Wura, he found himself spending more than he earned and battled severe financial hardship for months.

He said the experience was so challenging that within six months of exiting the show, his situation had deteriorated drastically, adding that YouTube projects eventually became his major source of financial recovery.

While acknowledging that the role gave him recognition and some personal fulfillment, he claimed that several promises made during negotiations were not fully honoured.

He further revealed that before joining the project, he was assured that he would not need to worry about missing other opportunities, but the demanding 11-month shooting schedule prevented him from participating in outside productions.

One of the biggest losses he mentioned was missing out on a role in House of Gaa.

According to Lanre, he had already worked on the project by translating it from English to Yoruba and was originally slated to play Alaafin Abiodun, but his commitment to Wura made it impossible.

Despite his revelations, the actor maintained that speaking out would not create legal issues, insisting that he contributed unique creative elements and signature nuances to the show that are still being used.
