Following her announcement of her split with fiancé IVD, Nigerian self-proclaimed relationship guru Blessing CEO has spoken out.
In a Wednesday afternoon Instagram post, Blessing CEO said that she will not be getting married to IVD, a well-known celebrity car dealer in Lagos.
Netizens were taken aback by the announcement, which caused online uproar.
The self-acclaimed relationship expert, however, broke her silence in the face of the outcry and said that she had posted about ending her engagement to test her “touch of controversy.”
“I was loosing my touch of controversy. Decided to test it again.I still got the magic. No be Blessingceo again. Boo boo for life. They love bad news ooooooo. Wedding loading,” she claimed.
In August, Blessing CEO, confirmed the arrest of her fiancé, celebrity car dealer Ikechukwu Ogbonna, aka IVD.
On Saturday, reports surfaced on social media claiming IVD was arrested on Friday.
Several of the accounts alleged he was apprehended while attempting to leave the country despite a travel ban.
The reports linked the ban to an ongoing domestic violence case involving his late wife, Bimbo.
IVD’s wife died in October 2022, sparking a series of allegations in the aftermath, with her sister notably accusing him of being responsible for her death.
But in an Instagram post, Blessing argued that the car dealer has no travel ban while describing the arrest as a “game of politics and dirty emotions”.
She claimed that IVD had never jumped bail since the case began and questioned why he would run over a short trip with a return ticket.

She alleged that his detention was being influenced by personal interests rather than justice while calling on the state to intervene.
“IVD never submitted any passport to the court. His passport was missing, and after 2 years of the case, he obtained a new passport,” she wrote.
‘There was no ban whatsoever on him. If there was, why would he make his travel public? IVD has never jumped bail for 3 years of the ongoing case, so why would he run for just a 10-day trip that has a return ticket?
“This is a game of politics and dirty emotions, and I hope there is paperwork. I will question the law.
“What are you charging him for? Show us the paperwork. Why are you holding him hostage just to please a woman?
“This is tribal war, it has nothing to do with justice, and the state must be questioned. Nobody arrested IVD. One man is using power to bully IVD. No case file, no statement, just said oga said hold him till Monday so we go lock am up. My question is for what???
“They know the judges are on vacation, that is why the bully. How come bloggers know everything that police don’t know I wonder how much that woman paid you, oga I rest my case.
“Stop bullying IVD because he is a man. Stop intimidating him just because you could not take his life, you are doing everything to intimidate him. This is an injustice.
‘They have bullied him for over 3 years. Lagos state, please come into this before it gets messy. Why are they holding IVD?”
Blessing further claimed that IVD was arrested on the orders of “the same woman who wanted him dead” and accused her of manipulating the system.
