Nobody can really tell why Mercy Johnson has suddenly become a subject of ridicule whenever she tries to be a true born of the soil
Recently, the sultry actress, Mercy, who has been in the United State of America for more than four months now was at the Nigerian Embassy, Washington DC to pick a passport for her daughter in preparation for their homecoming.
Having received warm treatment there, Mrs. Okojie went on her timeline to display her anxiety and how she was well treated obtaining the passport but it’s a different ball game entirely with some of her fans who started lampooning her.
The actress, who went to the embassy in company of her close friend, also posted a picture of herself and her friend in front of the high commission’s office with these message, “Obama has nothing on me peeps, am proud to be a Nigerian, just left the Nigerian Embassy in Washington DC. My God they were all so welcoming. Am most honored.”
Shortly after she posted this, critics started ridiculing her; read what they posted:
*You are so proud, yet you run go yankee go born American citizen! na so you dey deceive yourself!
*Yes because you are a Nigerian celebrity…..regular Naija person, don’t get special treatment, Naija embassy home and abroad have no customer service, rude, nasty, and unorganized
*Mercy J is my girl any time, but I get a fault with her for her saying that she is proud being Nigeria. If so, why didn’t she give birth to her baby in Nigeria?.Make una think about this and if I may ask, how many Americans traveled to Nigeria just to give birth? No long thing my brodas.
*You are so proud to be a Nigerian but you went to USA to give birth?
*WOW Lady, you don’t know how to keep it real.
If she’s so proud of Nigeria why didn’t she have her baby there, liar! Me I’m not proud of the country so I had my baby in the UK. Mercy just be honest
*Vking well said…she is proud to be Naija and went to America to give birth…visit naija embassy in Rome, Italy you will think twice to issue such statement of being proud of our embassies abroad.

ReplyDeleteWhat is the big deal in her getting a Nigerian passport for the girl. Do you know that she can use the daughter American passport for her, to come back home. So if she is proud of her Nigeria and she is using the passport, that is good of her. Keep it up my Girl. I wish you the best.
ReplyDeleteproud indeed. Nigeria has a lot of hospitals. you for born for one of them, then we would have known that you were really proud and NO, Nigerian embassies in Europe are full of shit. no respect for others, no customer service. maybe they were nice to you just because you are a celebrity sha
ReplyDeleteFriends or fans hate you just because you are better than them. You did nothing wrong, but,you are better than them.
ReplyDeletea woman has the right to give birth where ever she wants, especially if she can afford countries where maternal death rate is low. LET her exercise her rights. I bet you hurting razor mouths will do the same.
ReplyDeleteI think the publisher of this story owes Nigerians an appology for ridiculing the Nigeria Passport because non of MJ's fans in their tweets ridiculed this document which is presently adjudged as one of the best in the world .
ReplyDeleteThe caption, "Fans ridicule Mercy Johnson over Nigeria Passport for daughter" is totally deceptive and has no bearing on the story published.
Fans were asking and rightly too why she went to U S A to give birth if she is so proud of her Country Nigeria!
