Actress Mercy Johnson Celebrates Husband On His Birthday
Nollywood actress, Mercy Johnson Okojie, has taken to the social media platform to celebrate her husband, Prince Odi Okojie, as he marks his birthday today, Wednesday, May 15, 2024.
Mercy Johnson, who shared a video collage of herself and her husband, described her husband as her pillar, strength, hero and love. She refers to him as her babe. She stated that she was ‘short of words’ – as she declared he is ‘her everything and more’.
In her words: “Happy Birthday babe @princeodiokojie… My pillar, My Strength, My Hero and My Love….
Babe, hmmmmmm, Obulu My Love. Obulu … I have no words; you are everything and more”.
Recently, Prince Okojie had defended his wife against her colleague, Angela Okorie, after she dragged her, accusing her and her mother of being witches.
Angela had gone on an Instagram Live with Mercy Johnson’s former best friend, who called out Mercy Johnson for witchcraft and alleged that her late mother was the mastermind of it. The lady claimed Mercy Johnson was aware of the deaths happening in Nollywood and was the one that locked the destinies of the famous music group ‘Style Plus’ and her colleagues.
Reacting to their allegations, Mercy Johnson’s husband, in defending his wife, shared a cryptic post, urging the public to check on their loved ones as he noted how mental health is real. The politician stated that there are mad people everywhere. Mercy, on her part, remained silent and chose to focus on her family.
Last year (2003) , Mercy Johnson and her husband celebrated their 12th wedding anniversary. Mercy described her husband as her ‘quarrel and gossip partner’ whom she couldn’t do without; and she went on to cheer to more years of love without any condition or expiration, but to love each other endlessly.

Actress Patience Ozukor: I Rejected The Name-Tag ‘Liz Benson of Enugu’ On Me, To Have My Own Name-Tag ‘Patience Ozukor’
Nollywood veteran actress, Patience Ozokwor, has disclosed and talked about how people tried to impose titles and name-tags on her at the beginning of her career and how she handled it.
The veteran actress said when she began her acting career, people tried to compare her with legendary actress, Liz Benson, by tagging her as ‘Liz Benson of Enugu’ but she rejected the tag because she believes they are both unique.
She disclosed that she also rejected suggestions to answer her husband’s first name as her surname and instead chose to bear his family name.
She actually disclosed this in an interview session via a media platform.
Her words: “I don’t know how it started, all I know was that when I started my acting career and people started recognizing this woman from Enugu.”
“So, there was a time I came to Lagos for a shoot and people started saying, ‘That’s her, this woman from Enugu.’ They said, “You’re the ‘Liz Benson of Enugu.”
“I said, ‘No, with all due respect, I don’t want to be like Liz Benson, I want to be myself. I am ‘Patience Ozokwor of Enugu’.”
“And some people came and said, ‘You don’t even need to answer Patience Ozokwor again. Answer your husband’s first name Edmund; Patience Edmund.’
“I said, ‘No, because in Igbo land, you’re not just married by one man, you’re married by a family. I don’t know about other tribes.”
“So, my husband’s people, their name is Ozokwor. When you mention Ozokwor in any part of this world, people who know the Ozokwors would say ‘I know where she comes from’,” she concluded.
