Delta NMA Denies Blessing CEO’s Cancer Claim, Labels Report As Fake

The Delta State chapter of the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) has distanced itself from an online histology report purportedly given to well-known relationship coach Blessing Okoro, also referred to as Blessing CEO.

The association disclosed in a statement on Tuesday that the document is a modified copy of an original medical report from a different patient who was given a breast cancer diagnosis.

The statement was posted on Tuesday, which was signed by NMA Delta State Secretary Dr. Usamah Hannah and Chairman Dr. Israel Adaigho.

The statement read in part: “Our attention has been drawn to an online histology report purportedly issued to one Blessing Okoro, aka Blessing CEO, by Xinus Medical Diagnostics allegedly located in Enugu State. The said histology report was also alleged to have been signed by Dr. O.A. Odigwe, a consultant pathologist.

“The proprietor of Xinus Medical Diagnostics, Dr. O.A. Odigwe, who is also a member of the Nigerian Medical Association, Delta State chapter, has reached us and offered the following clarification: that Xinus Medical Diagnostics is located in Asaba, Delta State and did not at any time issue any report to Blessing Okoro.

“The centre was contacted in May 2025 by a doctor from a private hospital in Asaba to do a confirmatory test on a possible case of breast cancer for a patient, Mbara Deborah. The test was done and the result issued to the referring doctor as a case of breast cancer on May 9, 2025.

“A copy of that result is the one currently being circulated online by the law firm, Allen Juris Law, with the name Mbara Deborah as the patient. That result from the law firm is the original version issued to the patient through her hospital.”

“The integrity of our association and its members is very paramount and should not therefore be taken for granted.

“We call on the authorities responsible for maintaining law and order to do the needful and save unsuspecting members of the public from being unduly taken advantage of,” it added.

Ultimately, the Delta NMA’s swift denial aims to set the record straight and remind the public to stay vigilant against misinformation, ensuring that false reports don’t overshadow the truth.
