TRUE STORY: Actress, Mercy Johnson Talks About Her Poor Background Living In An Uncompleted Building With Lizards
READ MORE: http://news.naij.com/55778.htmlShe talks about how she once lived in an uncompleted building and how she was inspired to start acting after watching one of Genevieve Nnaji's movies.
Interview below:
Sometimes when I cry in movies, it isn't the script that makes me cry. When I recall my humble beginning, I give thanks to God. When I remember how we moved into an uncompleted building and had to take cover whenever it rained because of the condition of the house; how my brother did a menial job as a bricklayer to earn a living and those days when we rolled over a stick to cover the windows up till the point when I started acting and raised money to cover the roof.
I recall those days we were living with lizards because the floor and the walls of the house were not plastered, or when I had scars as a result of my several falls.”
How she got into acting
“After
my secondary school education, I failed the University Matriculation
Examination (UME) and came back to Lagos to get a degree. While that was
on, I watched Genevieve Nnaji in a movie entitled: Sharon Stone. I
later approached a friend for assistance to feature in a movie. He said I
had a great body and that I would make a good actress. He later took me
to the National Theatre, but a role did not come until a year later,
when I had my first lead role in a film entitled: The Maid.
The
Maid was my starting point and it was quite challenging to play the
lead role because it was my first movie. I was fidgeting when I saw the
likes of Eucharia Anunobi, whom I regarded as a screen goddess during my
secondary school days. I never thought I would make it with people like
that. So, when I saw her, I was so excited and considered standing
beside her as sacred. She actually realised that and later helped me by
giving me the needed courage."
What has marriage changed about you?
Marriage has taught me lots of things and I’ve learnt a lot since I got married too. I know that if I had gotten married earlier, I wouldn’t have made most of the errors I made. It’s good to be married to somebody who is so organised; he brings you up the right way and reminds you of whom you’re supposed to be.
You seem to be enjoying marriage a lot. You even once said that as soon as Purity (her daughter) clocks one, you would be going back to the labour room
My sister, marriage has been sweet for me because I have the best husband and daughter in the world. Being a married woman, I have learnt to tolerate things more. It has changed my perspective of life and the way I react to things.
But getting married and being an actress are two different things. How do you balance up?
When I’m not at location, I spend quality time with my family. And guess what? My husband has always been there for me and Purity. It’s obvious we are his priority. He’s a loving husband and father.
Your husband does not complain about those times when you are away?
He doesn’t; he understands the nature of my job. He’s the best thing that has happened to me. People usually say men are not reliable. In the case of my husband, he’s a blessing.
What was the point of attraction between you and Mr Okojie?
What attracted him to me was his fearless approach. You know sometimes, you meet some guys and they get intimidated about you, but not with him. The first time we were supposed to have a date, he said ‘Let’s go to my house so you can cook for me’ and in my mind, I was like “Seriously, this guy doesn’t know my name.” So, I said “My name is Mercy Johnson” and he said ‘Yes I know.

In the LEAK!! :New HTC One 2014 Edition Specs and Official name revealed in latest Rumour
Going by HTC One+ ( Which is said to be the official name of the follow up device), this could be a clue that this device might be more of an incremental update from the already stellar HTC One, as opposed to a fully redesigned, spec’d out 2K monster. That’s not to say the specs haven’t gotten a nice a bump. The One+ is said to feature the obligatory improved processor, coming equipped with a Snapdragon 805 working alongside speedier DDR3 RAM.
Display size has been increased to 5-inches (hopefully by shrinking the One’s bezels) but in a strange twist, it seems HTC could be doing away with capacitive keys in favor of on-screen software keys. It’s not a “feature” everyone will be too happy about depending on what suits you.
Addressing criticisms with the original HTC One, the HTC One+ could be this year’s “people’s smartphone”. Not only has HTC increased the battery size to 2,900mAh for added screen-on time, but they may have also equipped the One+ with the oft requested micro SD card slot.
Still up in the air is whether or not the HTC One+ will feature the recently rumored dual-lens UltraPixel camera for increased dynamic range and improved picture quality. Here’s all the “leaked” specs at a glance:

Meet OJB Jezreel’s 3 Wives And 8 Children
Before his illness and miraculous recovery, Babatunde Okungbowa aka OJB Jezreel‘s family never came under the light. Sure, we were all aware he was legally married to three wives but other than his first wife Mabel, we never really knew who the others were or how many children they had for him.
NET investigations have revealed the music producer is blessed with eight children (yup, I guess we can all cut 2face Idibia some slack now). Our correspondent gathered that OJB is actively involved in the lives of his wives and children and they all seem happy with their husband.
The entire family was involved when he battled ill-health. And it was his eldest wife, Mabel, who eventually donated a kidney for the producer’s transplant.
OJB has three kids with his first wife Mabel, three with his second, Ama and two with his third, Korede. All three ladies have a deep background in music and entertainment. Check out their family photos below
WIFE NUMBER ONE: Mabel Okungbowa

Mabel is fondly called Mama J by her husband and friends.

WIFE NUMBER TWO: June ‘Ama’ Okungbowa

June (better known as Ama) was once a promising Pop singer who had a few songs buzzing on TV back in 2003. Produced by OJB himself, the music maestro we learnt went on to marry Ama during that period.
The lady has slowed down on music, concentrating instead, on her three children – Denzel, Zion and Emmanuel. Ama is a graduate of the University of Lagos and once worked at Collectibles fashion store.
WIFE NUMBER THREE: Korede Okungbowa

She is fondly called ‘Kokomi’ by her husband. That’s also the name of her catering service.

‘combined effects of traumatic and thermal injuries.’
The actor’s entire body was charred through the skin it was burned so badly none of his organs were suitable for donation, according to the report.
His body was discovered in the passenger seat in a ‘pugilistic stance,’ which means he was in a defensive position preparing for a crash.
There were multiple fractures throughout his body, including his jaw, collarbone, and left upper arm according to the report.
There were also various ribs and pelvic fractures.
