Movie Marketers Move To Ban Mercy Johnson From Nollywood

According to a news report by HVP, those who love to watch sexy Nollywood actress, Mercy Johnson on home videos might not be able to see their darling star in movies from 2014. This is because there are underground plans to blacklist her by some marketers.

The Film and Video Producers and Marketers Association of Nigeria (FVPMAN) have alleged that Mercy Johnson is proving too hard to bend for them due to some conditions they claim are too harsh, which the actress allegedly gives to them on locations.

The report quoted a source to have said that Mercy Johnson’s attitude is getting ‘unbecoming as it affects her work.’


“According to our source, members of the association met last Monday, in Onitsha, Anambra State, to fine-tune plans to blacklist the actress who recently returned to Nollywood after months of being away in the United States, where she gave birth to her first child,” the report said.

They further alleged that Mercy Johnson now have the habit of disappearing while on location after she has been paid for the job.

Some marketers have reportedly been advised to release movies having Mercy Johnson in them on or before January 2014, while marketers who do not adhere to any further directive from the association would be sanctioned.

Some termed the reported threat as unnecessary and a ploy to distract the make-believe queen.

Also, it was alleged that Mercy Johnson was becoming too difficult to handle by the marketers and that her appearance fee was just sky-rocketing,

However, the actress seems to have reacted to the story and has lambasted them for the reported move. She has advised marketers complaining about her fees and services to try other actresses if they can't afford her.

According to the wife of Edo-born oil and gas big boy, Prince Odi Okojie, "what's wrong when you keep quiet till you know what's up? No petition, no complain, just fees. Those who can't afford Heineken should stick to 'Kain kain (local gin consumed in Nigeria)'

From her response, it seems she is ready for a showdown with the marketers
