Prince Odi Okojie: Nollywood’s Mercy Johnson Talks Divorce Rumours
Mercy Johnson has debunked divorce rumours which circulated across social media that her marriage had crashed. Early this year, it was reported that the Nollywood star’s marriage to Prince Odi Okojie was experiencing some turbulence. This was made worse because the actress had deleted all her pictures, including the ones that captured her husband, from her Instagram page. However, in an interview with Saturday Beats, she jokingly made it clear that she would never return the beautiful wedding ring her husband gave her. She said:
“I did not feel bad when I read the news that my marriage was hitting the rocks because it was not true. I am very comfortable in my own space and I am not out to please anybody. I am always true to myself and I continue to be a happy person. There was absolutely no problem between my husband and me, I only deleted the old pictures on my Instagram page. They were old so I deleted them to post new ones. I am not letting my husband go; even when he is angry, I would beg him. You see these beautiful rings that he has given to me, I am never returning them.”
Mercy Johnson also revealed that she intends to have more children. The mother of three said;
“I am going to have another baby very soon. I am obsessed with children and while growing up, I had always wanted to have four children, so we have to complete the equation.”
“It has not been easy combining my roles as an actress, representative of Kogi State, a mother and a wife but I describe myself as a home girl and everything has always been about a system of priority for me. So God comes first, my family and then work; God and my family have to be settled before we can talk about work because when I am not happy at home, I cannot function in whatever capacity I ought to function, so I have always followed my priorities. As I speak with you, if I get a call from my kids’ school and they inform me that something happened, I would leave everything I am doing and rush there.”
Mercy Johnson is currently in Sierra Leone with her husband. They are expected to return back to Nigeria shortly.
