I’m Grateful To My Fans- Mercy Johnson Writes In

Mercy Johnson has released her annual
thank you message to her fans. The message was sent in this morning to thank
her fans for their love and support they gave her in 2014. She also said she
has received their complains about her not dressing up to standard and promises
to change.

One of the best feelings one can
have is the feeling that some people who have never met you in person have your
back.

I have experienced love from
unimaginable people; Ghana, Liberia, Paris, UK, USA, Seychelles and all over
the world. Continue below…

Some met me crying, gave me gifts,
took pictures, asked questions, and some, not so pleasant. But in all of these,
I have no complaint because being where I am is a gift and privilege by God. A
privilege and a place I never thought I would be, a few years ago. This level
has its own attendant consequence, as I take in the blessing; I appreciate the
not-so-pleasant side as well.  For this, I
am grateful to God, my fans, and stakeholders in the industry who love me just
the way I am.

I want to also say a very big
thank you to my husband for giving me room to fly. Some men out there would
probably have clipped my wings but Odi is not some kind of man. I want to say
thank you for being so supportive and understanding.

I want to take this time to say
thank you to everyone who made the journey of 2014 easier despite the attendant
challenges. I am grateful to the marketers and my colleagues who stayed in
touch with me even when I was pregnant, directors who were patient with me,
fans who watched all the movies of 2014, those who took time out to search for
me on Google, who corrected me in love and those who watched ‘30 Days in
Atlanta’ (to make it biggest Nollywood movie in cinema history). I am also
grateful to everyone who showed me one form of love or the other during the
birth of our second son, Prince Henry: Nigerian Emabssy in the US, social media
followers and my ever diligent media and management company, Bigsam Media.

I plan and hope that 2015 will be
different from previous years. The jobs I will do will be slightly different
from that of the past. I will take up more challenges. I will also have to
balance things out because I still have to play the role of a wife and mother,
but all in all, there should be a new Mercy Johnson of sort.

As per the style, I have received
all your complaints and I will try and improve but please, do not forget I am
just a down-to-earth-girl-next-door. Thank you.

And please, AMVCA is around the corner,
let’s win again together this year, on how to vote, check @bigsammedia on
Twitter.

As always I am grateful. I wish
you the best this year has to offer. Happy New Year.
