As the governorship election in Edo state approaches, Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson-Okojie is supporting the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, catching the attention of Daniel Regha.
In a video, she explained to the people of Edo why they should choose APC’s Monday Okpebholo. Daniel mentioned that he doesn’t fault Mercy for her endorsement.
He believes she is following the trend set by other celebrities. He also criticized citizens for relying on public figures to decide their votes.
He responded to Mercy’s comments by questioning if people were not exhausted. His remarks linked the struggles of the citizens to the economic difficulties caused by the APC government’s policies at the federal level.
The influencer pointed out that Mercy Johnson does not grasp the challenges faced by ordinary people, and her question about their fatigue was disrespectful.
The actress is married to Prince Odi Okojie, a politician in the House of Representatives from the APC, representing the Esan South-East/Esan North-East Federal Constituency.

@i_jandor: “Mercy can be very disappointing sometimes. I feel she has this feeling of “I have arrived and can never go broke again”. But she forgets that life is an open-ended book – Anything can happen at any time. Let her Continue!”
@olah_ajia: “It’s hard to take ‘Una never taya’ seriously from someone like Mercy Johnson, who’s far removed from the daily struggles of most Nigerians. The fact is, we’ve all been guilty of putting celebrities on pedestals, but it’s time to stop and think. I think we deserve more than just.”
@Gracebal0: “The truth is entertainers benefit from politicians, so why expect them not to support them.”
@NotUrKev: “The day y’all start realizing most of these celebrities don’t care about your existence will be good for y’all.
