Nollywood actress and politician’s wife, Mercy Johnson Okojie, is currently trending across social media platforms after unveiling a noticeably slimmer physique in a video posted to her official Instagram account.
In the video, Johnson is seen promoting her business products, confidently showcasing her new look.
Known for her once-curvaceous figure, the actress now appears much leaner, with a longer neck and visibly reduced hips and backside.
Her transformation has left fans stunned, with many questioning the sudden physical change.
While some followers praised her new appearance, a significant number expressed concern, suggesting the weight loss looked unhealthy and unnatural.
Kacey__mariah commented, “I really don’t like this new you. You don’t look healthy.” Julieromnice added, “Make we fans sometimes day talk the truth, Omo this is too much look at the neck na, ahhh.”
Real_princess_bridget voiced skepticism over the naturalness of the transformation, stating, “Respectfully, your dramatic weight loss usually requires medical intervention. Only procedures like gastric bypass or medications like Ozempic etc, have been proven to deliver these kinds of results of yours… Diet and exercise alone rarely produce such rapid changes. Please stop the spread of false information!”
Wear.latestfashion also joined the conversation, urging honesty among fans: “Some of you can’t say the truth even when it’s very obvious how are you telling her she looks good like how? We know you love her but pls try to be honest when necessary… make una Dey fear God sometimes ejoo.”
Other commenters echoed similar sentiments. Halima_alaja_1 wrote, “Your former body is the best mummy.” Idia_osula shared, “Mercy what’s going on with ur health????healing streams is coming up by pastor Christ in June or July… don’t die in silence… we love u.”
On the other hand, some fans came to her defense.
Pitch_drey remarked, “She’s looking younger to me tho. Abi na my eyes?” Debbiee_blossom offered a broader take: “You’re chubby problem, you’re slim problem. And social media has really made everyone age mate… Awon adviser isonu.”
Iam_mztonia critiqued the extreme change, stating, “Too much of everything is bad, with her head looking like standing fan.” However, iamtimah_white countered with, “If person fat una go complain., If person slim una go complain, Wetin una want gan gan????”
In a related development, Mercy Johnson previously addressed a comment about her marriage that sparked speculation among fans.
This came after she shared a promotional post for women’s and children’s clothing in which she was not wearing her wedding ring.
A fan, identified as Nurse Gift, highlighted the missing ring, pointing out that Johnson had not been seen wearing it for a while.
