Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson-Okojie is facing intense backlash after publicly endorsing Monday Okpebholo, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the upcoming Edo State gubernatorial election. 

In a viral video, Mercy Johnson was seen actively campaigning for Okpebholo at a rally, urging the crowd to support his bid for governor.

She highlighted the lack of essential services like electricity, water, healthcare, and security in Edo State, calling for a change. She passionately urged the audience to vote for Okpebholo, saying, “Are you not tired? No light, water, healthcare, security, and good roads."

Her endorsement has sparked criticism online, with many accusing her of backing the ruling party amid ongoing economic challenges across the country.

The election is set for September 21, 2024, where Okpebholo will face off against other candidates, including Asue Ighodalo of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and Olumide Akpata of the Labour Party (LP).
