Popular Nollywood actress, Mercy Johnson Okojie, has aired her views on Nigerian politics.

The mother of three who is also the Senior Special Assistant on Entertainment, Arts and Culture to the Kogi State governor, Yahaya Bello said that she is not interested in politics because her husband is already a politician.

The voluptuous mother said being an actress has given her enough public image and she would not like to top it with political responsibilities.

However, she said she is not scared of politics adding that she only wants to be careful.

Speaking with the Sun, Mercy Johnson said,

“No, I am not interested in politics, if my people beg me to join, I’ll equally beg them not to beg me. I just don’t want to do politics at all.

“I can equally effect change in my community without holding any political office. My husband is already a politician, but I’m not. I think it’s enough on my shoulders that I’m responsible for some actions in the state.

“I also have influence on people as a film person. Everything you do is under scrutiny; that public eye is enough for me. I wouldn’t want to top it with political responsibilities. I can represent my community in a good light, help people, touch lives, do the best I can, and remain a good woman, but not with a political tag.

“Well, I’m not scared. I’m just been careful.”

Mercy Johnson also revealed that she wants more children because she is obsessed with them.

“I’m obsessed with children. While growing up, I always had it in mind that I’ll have four children. So, we still need one more to complete it (laughs). So, we can always play football correctly, three boys, three girls,” she added.

The actress addressed the issue of showing off her husband on her Instagram page and balancing her busy schedule with family responsibilities.

“I am not in competition with anybody. I always do me, because I’m just myself. You can never tell what tomorrow will beget. I’m always me, even on social media.

“It has not been easy, but we are in the jet age. I am a working mother. I have to work. However, like I said earlier, it’s all about the scale of preference. I give everyone and everything its own time.”
