A Nigerian man has spoken out on social media to counter claims that actress Mercy Johnson played a role in supporting Regina Daniels’ marriage to politician and businessman Ned Nwoko.
His tweet followed the recent revelation by Regina Daniels, who stated on Instagram that she got married to her husband when she was just 17 years old.
Her post ignited massive reactions across social media about the circumstances surrounding Regina’s early marriage.
Many people had dragged Mercy Johnson who’s close to Regina Daniels, claiming that she allowed the marriage.
Commenting on this, a man identified as @hnakyambadde on X, addressed viral speculations about Mercy Johnson’s alleged involvement in the matter.
In his post, he claimed that the actress never approved of the union and had actually opposed it at the time.
According to him, Mercy Johnson saw Regina Daniels as a daughter because she had guided her in the film industry and felt bad about her decision to marry at such a young age.
He further explained that Mercy Johnson’s disagreement over the issue even caused serious tension between them, but she eventually forgave Regina because of the close bond they shared.
In his words:
“Please it’s not a matter of just posting Mercy was against that marriage coz she takes Gina as her daughter coz she grew through Mercy’s hands as in the movie industry even had serious issues coz of that, but coz she is a daughter to her n she forgave her.”
