Nigerian social media personality, Blessing CEO, has apologised to Nigerians over her past statements and actions, admitting that she regrets commenting on other people’s struggles without fully understanding their experiences.
The influencer became emotional and broke down in tears in a video shared on her Instagram page on Tuesday, November 3, days after her release from detention and following the death of her son, Brian.
In the emotional video, Blessing CEO described herself as broken and exhausted, saying she had learnt some difficult lessons from her experiences.
She also expressed regret over her previous remarks, appealing to Nigerians for forgiveness.
“I’m so sorry for speaking about the pain I’ve never felt. I’m realising that talk is cheap. Action speaks louder than voice,” she said.
Blessing’s apology comes amid renewed scrutiny of her controversial public statements, including her comments during the domestic violence dispute involving late Bimbo Ogbonna and her husband, IVD, as well as her repeated criticism of May Edochie during her marital crisis.

She also faced widespread backlash in 2026 after claiming she had stage four breast cancer and soliciting donations from the public. The fundraising appeal became controversial after questions were raised about the medical report she presented. She later clarified that she did not have a confirmed stage four diagnosis.
In the video, Blessing also remembered her late son, whom she affectionately called “Doom Doom”, saying she missed him and was determined to make amends.
“I miss you, Brian. I miss you so much, and I promise to correct every wrong,” she said.
She further disclosed that her mother had been struggling with the loss, revealing that they sometimes hid from each other to cry.
Describing her apology as a decision to retrace her steps, Blessing likened herself to the biblical prodigal son, saying she was ready to return home and start afresh.
“I’m not ashamed of coming back home. I just want to find my way back,” she added.
