How I lived large while in jail    — Blessing Okoro

Nigerian socialite and self-acclaimed relationship expert Blessing Okoro popularly known as Blessing CEO has shared her prison experience which she described as comfortable.

Blessing, who shared her experience revealed that while she was serving her time, everything was made available for her.

Recall that she was incarcerated in March 2023 on charges of engaging in cyberbullying related to her support of the late Bimbo Ogbonna and her husband, the well-known Lagos auto dealer Ikechukwu Ogbonna, also known as IVD.

But Blessing, who was freed in April 2023, revealed that she learned while incarcerated that inmates could purchase opulent but expensive meals from prison-owned restaurants in addition to having access to the common food supply.

She claimed that there was a phone booth in the prison where prisoners could make phone calls to their families.

Blessing said; ‘’You have a phone booth but phones are not allowed. Phones are like contraband. Some people will always find ways to sneak in these phones. That’s the truth. And you know we are in a corrupt country, they always have their ways around. Just like contrandands. But phones are officially not allowed.

‘‘After two days when I got into prison, I needed to do a transfer to someone so I went to beg one of the wardens. She now gave me my phone and asked me to sit down and do the transfer.

‘‘Busybody like me, as I finished with the transfer, I went on to post a photo on Instagram. Everywhere scattered. ‘Blessing was not in prison, she posted’. I didn’t even know I was trending online because I have posted what I wanted to post and I wrote ‘One man mopol, no shaking’.
