A recent report has surfaced alleging that popular Nollywood actress, Mercy Johnson Okojie, has officially filed a petition against her colleague Angela Okorie over repeated cases of cyberbullying and online harassment. This development has sparked widespread discussions among fans and observers of the Nigerian entertainment industry, who have been closely following the ongoing tension between the two stars.
It will be recalled that Angela Okorie recently came under fire after she made controversial remarks about Mercy Johnson’s health condition and noticeable weight loss during a live session on Instagram. In her statements, Angela suggested that Mercy was battling a serious illness, fueling rumors and attracting backlash from the public who saw her comments as insensitive and inappropriate.
According to entertainment blogger Cutie Juls, Angela Okorie reportedly lacks both the financial capability and influential connections to initiate a lawsuit against Mercy Johnson, contrary to speculations circulating online. The blogger further alleged that Angela’s continuous online attacks on Mercy stem from unresolved personal issues dating back over a decade, which allegedly contributed to the breakdown of Angela Okorie’s marriage.
In a surprising twist, Cutie Juls claimed that billionaire politician and businessman, Ned Nwoko, is solidly backing Mercy Johnson and is actively involved in supporting her petition against Angela. This reported involvement has added another layer of intrigue to the matter, given Ned Nwoko’s public profile and influence within the entertainment and political spheres.
As of now, neither Angela Okorie nor Mercy Johnson Okojie has publicly addressed or confirmed the swirling rumors surrounding the petition. Both actresses have maintained silence despite the growing media attention and online speculation. Notably, before these reports emerged, Angela Okorie had repeatedly criticized and mocked Mercy Johnson on social media, often making derogatory remarks about her appearance and personal life. Mercy, on her part, appeared unbothered and continued to share cheerful posts on her social media platforms, showing no visible signs of being affected by the ongoing drama.
Many fans and industry insiders are now eagerly awaiting official statements from both parties to clarify the situation and address the rising tension. In the meantime, the story continues to generate heated discussions and mixed reactions among Nollywood followers and the general public.
