Blessing CEO Sparks Reactions After Saying “Cancer Has Not Shrunk Me Like Alex Because I Have Tough Skin”
Controversial relationship expert Blessing CEO has stirred major reactions online after making a bold statement about her own cancer journey while mourning late Nollywood actor Alexx Ekubo.
Social media personality Blessing CEO has yet again found herself at the centre of another controversy following her emotional reaction to the untimely death of actor Alexx Ekubo, who reportedly died after battling cancer.
Initially mourning the actor, Blessing wrote:
“God will punish cancer. We waited for you to show up. You fought silently. Rest in peace.”
However, what later sparked controversy was what she said after, saying:
“The reason why cancer has not shrunk me like Alex is that I have tough skin.”
The statement quickly went viral, drawing mixed reactions from Nigerians online. While some supporters interpreted her words as an expression of personal resilience and determination in her own health battle, critics described the comment as insensitive and poorly timed, especially given the emotional weight surrounding Alexx Ekubo’s death.
The comment also revived public discussion about Blessing CEO’s own cancer journey. Earlier this year, she revealed she had been diagnosed with cancer and appealed for public support. However, she later clarified that earlier reports of stage 4 cancer were a “miscommunication,” saying doctors were still determining the exact stage.
As expected, social media wasted no time giving her attention and dragging her, claiming her cancer journey has been nothing but schemes to extort money from people and accusing her of wanting to make a tragic moment about herself.
Blessing CEO is known for her love of attention, and this latest comment has once again put her at the centre of Nigeria’s online conversation.
