Actress Mercy Johnson’s husband has come to her defense after she was publicly criticized for endorsing Tinubu and Babajide Sanwo-Olu for the 2023 elections.
Mercy Johnson, had yesterday posted a photo of herself with some All Progressives Congress members via her verified Instagram page with the caption: “Earlier today, I joined His Excellency, Babajide Sanwo-Olu @jidesanwoolu and the incredible women leaders that make up the APC ‘Women Presidential Campaign Team’ at the APC women Southwest Rally.
“As a woman, wife to an APC candidate @princeodiokojie, and mother, I am confident in the APC plan for women which is in line with the 35% affirmative action for women.
“From the goodwill messages and conversations with the women leaders, I was opportune to hear from the horse’s mouth and I have renewed hope and confidence in the good intentions, great plans, and actions to follow for the women of Nigeria and for the people of Nigeria. Renewed hope. VoteAPC. Odiwife,” she said.
Her post didn’t go well with some Nigerians, who expressed their disappointment under the post.
Nigerians criticised her
one Muti wrote, “Renewed hope at roughly 300 Per liter for fuel or over 30k for one bag of rice? You are not a serious human being. Tomorrow you celebrities will make a video crying about the hike in prices. Aunty if you don’t fear men, please fear God for the sake of Nigerians.
Brave wrote, “You all just care about money and no single regard for humanity. It’s a pity!.
Support ur husband for his position but don’t try sugarcoating APC!! Even deep down you know the truth!!!” One Zubby wrote
“The internet never forgets, u all celebrities supporting someone u know is not healthy enough to rule us but yet u still support them because of your selfish interests, if eventually they win and this country turns worse than it is, you will have yourselves to blame, but of course, u all don’t care, because your families are well to do and can leave the country anytime u like.
Her husband defends her
Prince Odi Okojie has publicly praised her for always standing with him despite the public attacks.
He took to the comment section of the post and wrote “My Dear Wife and Best Friend, Thanks a lot for your support, You have always STOOD where I STAND. You’re an amazing WOMAN. We will work hard for NIGERIA. I LOVE you and GOD Bless you. The Winning Ways BABY,” he said.
