Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson-Okojie has denied reports that she is fighting cancer after losing weight recently.
The allegation started when a video clip from her cookery show Mercy’s Menu went viral, in which she claimed to have suffered a cancer scare.
However, Mercy Johnson assured her fans and well-wishers that she is healthy in a recent social media video, thanking them for their love and worry.
She underlined the misinterpretation of the viral video and cautioned the public against disseminating false information.
In her words, “First and foremost, thank you so much for all of you who have been calling in and sending messages and prayers.
“Thank you. I do appreciate it so much. But I do not have cancer. I noticed that a clip from my TV show, Message Menu, has been flying around. And I think it was cut.
“They cut the clip. I said I had a cancer scare. It means that I had this swelling on my neck. If you can see the line there. And my doctor felt it was something serious. I had problems with my thyroid. I’m perfectly okay. Thank you so much for all of your calls and your messages.”
“This phone has been buzzing like crazy. I am perfectly fine. And I do not have cancer. I am perfectly okay. So, thank you so much for checking up on me. Thank you for sending all those messages. Go back and watch the clip. It was completely misunderstood. I am fine. I do not have cancer, in Jesus’ name. Thank you, guys, so much. Bye. Thank you,” the 40-year-old added.
