Mercy Johnson is as real it it’s gets. She doesn’t hide her admiration for her peers especially Genevieve Nnaji. She opened up to City people magazine on the first time they met
Ahh! The first time I met her, my friend took me there. When we got to where she was, I became nervous. I told my friend “no let me hide in your boot.” And I did. I got into her boot. (laughs) Can you imagine I came to see her and when I got there I wanted to run back. I jumped into my friends boot. So, when she came out of the hotel, I could not see her, I could only hear her voice.
The 2nd time I saw her was on set. When she came down and I met her she said ahh! Mercy I like your movies and I started crying. I was in tears of joy. I said Aunty Genevieve, so you watch my movies. She was sort of embarrassed. Before I met her, she had already known that there was somebody who was crazily insane about her. She was really nice to me, receptive. And even whenever we work together she will correct me and say that thing you did, you could have done it this way.
Donald Trump on Monday called for a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States," an idea swiftly condemned by his rival candidates for president and other Republicans.
The proposed ban would apply to immigrants and visitors alike, a sweeping prohibition affecting all adherents of Islam who want to come to the U.S. Trump's campaign said in a statement such a ban should stand "until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on." It said the proposal comes in response to a level of hatred among "large segments of the Muslim population" toward Americans.
"Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life," Trump said in the statement.
At an evening rally in South Carolina, Trump supporters cheered and shouted in support as he read his statement. Trump warned during his speech that without drastic action, the threat of attacks is "going to get worse and worse."
"As he says, we have to find out who they are and why they are here," Rod Weader, a 68-year-old real estate agent from North Charleston who attended the rally and said he agreed with Trump's plan "150 percent." ''Like he said, they are going to kill us and we've got to stop it."
“We have no idea who is coming into our country, no idea if they like us or hate us,” Trump told supporters in S.C. “I wrote something today that is very salient…and probably not very politically correct. But I don’t care.”
Trump added that his proposal is “common sense” and “we have no choice”. He warned the crowd that “we can be politically correct and stupid but it’s going to get worse and worse.”
The proposed ban would stand "until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on," his campaign said in a statement earlier Monday.
The statement added that Trump's proposal comes in response to the level of hatred among "large segments of the Muslim population" toward Americans.
"Donald Trump is unhinged," Jeb Bush said via Twitter. "His 'policy' proposals are not serious."

Sharia courts operating in the UK are treating women as second-class citizens, a damning report has revealed.
The secretive Islamic tribunals, working mainly from mosques, settle financial and family disputes according to religious principles.
But the parallel justice system runs against the law of the land and is condemning British Muslim women to ‘marital captivity’ while failing to protect them from domestic violence, an independent study found.
In one controversial case, a sharia court refused to intervene even though a woman said her husband was denying her a divorce unless she gave him £10,000.
In another instance, a woman who claimed to be married to an abusive husband was told by a laughing judge: ‘Why did you marry such a person?’
Under Islamic law, men only need to say ‘I divorce you’ three times to separate from their wives while women need the sanction of clerics.
According to the report, a judge at an East London court told a couple who had already obtained a civil divorce that the paper counted for nothing.
It said the judge – known as a qadi – told the couple: ‘Secular judge does not do religious divorces. We have Islam. Secular courts do not have Islamic laws. Can a kaffir [non-Muslim] come in and judge Islamic matters?’
The report was written by Machteld Zee, a Dutch academic who was granted unprecedented access to Islamic divorce hearings in London and Birmingham.
She concluded: ’There are, in fact, two separate legal orders functioning [in the UK], of which one currently operates in the “shadow of the law”.’
Judges in the courts were ‘upholding the theory and practice of the strong hold men have over women’, she added.
Her findings will reignite the debate about the rise of sharia law, the legal system derived from the Koran and the rulings of Islamic scholars, which are known as fatwas.
It provides a code for living – including prayers, fasting and donating to the poor – but is also notorious for laying down extreme punishments such as cutting off a hand or death by stoning for adultery.
A woman, 19, has been battling a porn addiction since she was just eight and says an early desire for ‘vanilla’ porn that eventually turned hardcore led to a string of abusive and violent relationships.
Rebecca has spoken of her 11-year addiction to pornography which she says she first sought out when she saw a movie where a young girl had been kidnapped.
Rebecca, who only wanted to be referred to by her first name, said she was confused by the ‘deep feeling’ the movie brought, and went searching for that feeling again, the now 19-year-old told Tom Tilley for Australians on Porn, to air on Monday at 9.30pm on ABC 2. ‘When I first started watching porn, I would just watch kind of I guess “normal” or “vanilla” porn, just heterosexual, just run of the mill,’ Rebecca told the ABC.
‘And then as I got older it started becoming more violent, more aggressive and demeaning, I guess. I would watch it kind of multiple times a day and I felt like I couldn’t stop.
‘I think I definitely lost control of my sexuality watching the really violent porn and things like bestiality.’
Rebecca said her porn addiction escalated by the time she was 16-years-old when relationships turned violent.
She began to fit the submissive role she saw women portrayed as in pornography, she said, and began asking partners to choke her which they were ‘always more than willing to do’.
Because of what she’d seen, Rebecca said she thought it was normal for relationships to be abusive, and that she’d been sexually assaulted ‘several times’ by her partners.
‘Looking back now, a 16-year-old shouldn’t have been engaging in really violent sex where there wasn’t a huge amount of respect or love involved,’ Rebecca said.
‘Retrospectively I wish I’d never seen it.’
Still today, the 19-year-old is battling her addiction and visits a psychologist in the hopes of one day enjoying sex without violence.
‘I just would like to have a respectful, equal relationship,’ Rebecca said. ‘And a life where I feel good about myself and my sexuality and I can engage in sex in a really healthy, respectful way.'
She'll make a stunning bride. The popular OAP covers the bridal issue of Genevieve magazine Dec. issue, where she bares it all on her love journey with Tunde Demuren; a journey which started from “I’ll burn your house, Banky W, if Tunde does anything horrible to me!”, to saying “I do” to a beautiful future. And in a candid manner, she talks about looking forward to marriage and not succumbing to societal expectations. See another photo after the cut...
The medical director of the St. Joseph’s Hospital in Koforidua Rev. Brother George Castro Yankey has been caught pants down in an alleged sex scandal with a married nurse of the medical facility.
Starr News investigations at the St. Joseph's Hospital reveal the director has been implicated in several allegations of sexual harassment against his female staff, but has vehemently denied until he was caught on camera.
The painstaking investigations by Starr News’ Eastern regional correspondent Kojo Ansahuncovers an undressed Yankey in the hall of a married nurse, who is a staff, in an attempt to have sexual intercourse with her to facilitate her promotion.
The medical director allegedly demanded for sex before he signs her promotion letter. The director refused to approve the promotion because the nurse in question turned down his request. Starr News can reveal that the nurse then broached the barrage of sexual harassment to her husband.
The couple then agreed that the nurse should pretend she has fallen for the request of the director hence must come home to satisfy his libido.
Yankey quickly jumped on board his official vehicle and drove to the matrimonial home of the nurse, hoping the husband was out of town. After some pleasantries at the house of the nurse, the medical director undressed, looking forward to a memorable sexual encounter only for the nurse’s husband to pop up.
The damning video captured the wretched medical director on his knees begging for clemency.
Incidentally, the accountant at the hospital unknowingly called the director’s mobile phone on a separate issue only for the nurse’s husband to pick the line and divulged the embarrassing ordeal of the director to him.
The accountant, according to Kojo Ansah, was given directions to the location and quickly drove there with other officials to plead and promised to pay over GHS 400,000 compensation to the couple.
Rev. Bro Yankey has refused to grant Starr News an interview when reached on phone, saying the case is with the police and pleaded that the story must not go public.
A 16-year-old girl from Okpoitumo community in Ikwo Local Government Area of Ebonyi State, Gladys (surname withheld), is battling for survival after she was gang raped to coma by four secondary schoolboys who invaded her house about 10pm. The four students, Jeremiah Odah, Dick Alo, Ofobuike Alo and Obumnaeme, had broken into the girl’s house and immediately demanded sex which she refused to oblige them.
The boys from Galaxy Foundation Secondary School, Ndiofoke Amagu, Ikwo in Ikwo Local Government Area then beat her up. After rapping her to coma, the students carried her out of her house and dropped her in a bush where she was found after two days of search party by members of the community.
She was immediately rushed to the Rural Improvement Mission Hospital (RIMH), Ndegu Echara community in the local government for medical attention. According to the medical report conducted on the victim, Gladys sustained serious internal injuries in her body including private parts during the incident.
The matter was reported to the Ebonyi State Family Law Centre, a special court saddled with the responsibility of handling such case. The Chairman of the court, Mrs Edeh Nwali, then petitioned the state Com-missioner of Police, Peace Ibekwe Abdallah, urging her to use her good offices and bring the perpetrators to book.
The four boys disappeared from their hostel and the community after committing the crime. But the father of the victim, identified simply as Mr Edward, appealed to the court, human rights organisations and the government to intervene in the matter. He described his daughter as the breadwinner of the family. Edward added that his family had been surviving on her tailoring business.
