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.
