Tensions are rising in Nollywood as actress Regina Daniels has weighed in on the growing controversy between fellow actresses Angela Okorie and Mercy Johnson-Okojie, delivering a fiery clapback that has taken social media by storm.
The drama began when Angela Okorie, in a recent Instagram Live session, revealed that she had chosen to forgive Mercy Johnson, who, according to her, is allegedly battling a serious illness. Angela went further to suggest that Mercy should seek forgiveness from others she may have wronged and advised her to drop the facade of using “church words” that don’t reflect her true character.
“I have forgiven Mercy, but she needs to ask others for forgiveness too. All that church talk doesn’t suit her, she needs to come clean,” Angela stated.
However, the comment didn’t sit well with many fans and certainly not with Regina Daniels, who came to Mercy Johnson’s defense in a bold and unapologetic Instagram story that lit up the internet.
“With all due respect, Aunty Angela, you dey mad. Abeg no forgive because for this side, we no dey forgive. Continue and whilst at it, no forget say she get pikin wey gidigba. No dey shalaye,” Regina posted.
Her statement not only questioned Angela Okorie’s state of mind but also implied that Mercy Johnson should hold her ground and not accept any forgiveness or extend one.
The post has since gone viral, triggering a wave of reactions across social media. Fans are now divided, with some applauding Regina for her loyalty and fiery defense, while others are calling for restraint and urging all parties involved to seek peace.
This latest exchange has added fuel to a long-standing tension between Mercy Johnson and Angela Okorie, who have had a rocky relationship over the years. Now, with Regina Daniels stepping into the ring, the drama has taken a fresh and very public turn.
As it stands, fans are watching closely to see how Mercy Johnson will respond, or whether this Nollywood feud will escalate even further.
