Nigeria’s Federal High Court sitting in Lagos, Nigeria, has remanded a social media influencer, Blessing Okoro alias Blessing CEO following her arraignment by the police for alleged cyber-bullying.

Justice Yelim Bogoro remanded the vlogger and self-proclaimed relationship/mental expert in the custody of the Nigerian Correctional Services (NCoS) till May 30 for hearing of her bail application.

The police arraigned the defendant on a six-count charge of alleged cyber-bullying, libel and for exhibiting uncensored movies.

Prosecuting counsel, Rotshang Faith Dimka of the Force Headquarters, Abuja, said Okoro of Lekki, Lagos, on October 16, 2022, “intentionally sent messages using her Instagram handle @officialblessingceo to bully, threaten and harass one Folashade Samuels, alias Mamajazz, a younger sister to late Bimbo Ogbonna.”

The vlogger was also accused of using her Instagram handle @officialblessingceo, to injure the reputation of Folashade Samuels and the late Bimbo Ogbonna, by exposing them to hatred, contempt and ridicule.

The police further accused her of exhibiting a film and video work titled, “Sweet Sour” without a censorship certificate and without holding a licence as issued by National Film & Video Censors Board (NFVCB).

According to the police, some of the messages allegedly sent by the defendant included: “Let’s ask Mamajazz where her father is??? Their father had exactly the same issue with their mother Ebele and he ran away for us (sic) dear life. IVD’s crime was that he was not man enough to run… ”

“The family of late Bimbo is after IVD’’s properties and life. Especially her elder sister Mamajazz. Bimbo and IVD are well-known people in Lagos and it’s not a hidden fact that even in their estate that Bimbo is violent. Everybody knows how she breaks a bottle on her husband’s head on a daily .. Bimbo killed herself and has always wanted to kill herself right from childhood. Evidence loading. All the voice notes and evidence will be on my YouTube and Facebook. Subscribe,”
