There is an underground plans by the movie
marketers under the aegis of Film and Video
Producers and Marketers Association of Nigeria,
FVPMAN, to blacklist Mercy Johnson Okojie,, in
what they call, “ Withdrawing of service from her.”
A highly placed source  who disclosed this latest
move against the Actress to HVP, said, the
association decided to take this action, following the
‘unbecoming attitude of the actress as it affects her
work.”
According to our source, members of the
association met last Monday, in Onitsha, Anambra
State,  to fine-tune plans  to blacklist the actress
who recently returned to Nollywood after months of
being away in the United States, where she gave
birth to her first child.
Shedding more light on the reason for blacklisting
the Actress, our source disclosed that the
marketers accused Mercy Johnson of forming the
habit of  disappearing while on location after she
has been  paid for the job.  She was also accused
of given them difficult conditions.
However, the source  further hinted that the
marketers have vowed to sanction any member
who disregard the decision to blacklist the actress.
He also revealed that the leadership of the
association has advised its members to release all
the films that  Mercy Johnson featured in, on or
before January, 2014.
Meanwhile, efforts to contact Mercy to react to the
allegations proved abortive as her cell-phone was
permanently switched-off. Recall, however, that
upon her return to Nollywood,Mercy  was
bombarded with several scripts from different
marketers and producers who wanted to get her on
their movies.
