However, Blessing CEO’s lawyer, Nkama Nneka, argued that the charge had only just been served recently.Ruling on the matter, Justice Oshodi held that the arraignment should go ahead in line with legal procedures, after which the charges were formally read to the defendant.

This latest development comes months after she was first arraigned by the EFCC in May 2026 over an alleged N36 million fraud case.

The case is expected to continue as legal proceedings progress.
