The Nigerian Medical Association has strongly denied any connection to the “Stage 4 cancer” report being circulated online by media personality Blessing
CEO.
According to the association, after reviewing the document, they found clear signs that it had been altered. They stated that the format, details, and presentation do not match standard medical reports issued by certified hospitals or professionals in Nigeria.
The NMA made it clear that no verified doctor or medical body under them issued such a report. They emphasized that medical records are sensitive documents that follow strict professional and ethical standards, and anything outside that should be questioned.
They also warned that sharing false health information, especially about serious illnesses like cancer, can mislead the public, create panic, and damage trust in the healthcare system.
The association advised Nigerians to always verify medical claims from reliable and official sources before believing or sharing them online.
This issue has continued to generate reactions on social media, with many calling for accountability and urging influencers to be more responsible when sharing sensitive information.
