Chukwu has also added goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama, Ifeanyi Udeze, Joseph Yobo, Taiye Taiwo and Belgium-based Tosin Dosunmu to the squad from the Unity Cup.
Blackburn continued to look the more composed side, and it took a vital interception from Joseph Yobo to deny Jason Roberts after he weaved his way into the area.
And when Chelsea did eventually find room in the box - twice in a minute - first Yobo blocked Lampard's goalbound effort and then Salomon Kalou headed narrowly over.
Joseph Yobo's 10th-minute header was followed by a close-range finish by summer signing Distin from another corner seven minutes later, and a superb right-foot effort by Steven Pienaar on 37.
Meanwhile, while Celtic are believed to be interested in signing Manchester City goalkeeper Shay Given and Everton defender Joseph Yobo, Lennon did not wish to respond publicly about any specific players.
Yobo is certain that the new boys are yearning to make their mark with the Super Eagles and acknowledged the role of the fans if the two-time African champions are to rise again.
New deals for defenders Phil Jagielka and Jospeh Yobo and goalkeeper Tim Howard were confirmed on Wednesday, while playmakers Mikel Arteta and Tim Cahill still have another three years to run on their agreements.
With Johnny Heitinga cup-tied and Sylvain Distin suspended, Everton had a new central defensive partnership in Yobo and Philippe Senderos - and the latter was very harshly penalised for a foul on Yannick Djalo.
"People forget that we are just building a new team and the coach is trying hard to implement his own method, mentality and get us playing like the successful Super Eagles of old, " Yobo told BBC Sport.
Chelsea's anger boiled over minutes later when Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole were both booked for dissent after which Joseph Yobo went close for Everton as he hooked his foot around a low right-foot volley to force Cech into a smart low save.
