“You have to post your child’s dead body before we believe you” – Phyna to Blessing CEO

Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner Phyna has sparked intense social media controversy after demanding that incarcerated relationship influencer Blessing “CEO” Okoro provide photographic proof of her deceased son before receiving any public sympathy.

During a recent live session, Phyna stated that she is unwilling to offer condolences over a claim she believes could be manufactured. Citing Blessing CEO’s history of public controversies and perceived lack of integrity, Phyna insisted that the influencer would “need to post the dead body” to prove the reports are genuine.

The friction follows reports that Blessing CEO’s second son, Bryan Onyedikachi, tragically passed away from an asthma attack while she was held at the Kirikiri Correctional Centre in Lagos. A humanitarian organization, the Isaamira Love Foundation, initially went public with the news while launching a  fundraising appeal aimed to secure millions of naira to perfect her bail and ₦36 million to settle complainants in her ongoing ₦69.15 million property fraud trial.

Blessing CEO was granted bail conditions in July 2026 requiring two sureties with three years of verified deposits. Having failed to meet those terms, she has remained in custody for two months.

In a voice note shared by Blessing from detention to Isamira, Blessing CEO emotionally mourned her son, stating he was “full of life” and expressing a desperate wish to lay him to rest. However, new developments have since emerged, with reports claiming Blessing CEO has denied authorizing any third-party fundraising campaigns on her behalf while Isamira insists she got permission from blessing to raise funds from Nigerians.
