Mercy Johnson has revealed how veteran actress Patience Ozokwor encouraged her to avoid indecent dressing years ago.
She reflected on the past and shared the advice of the veteran actress during her conversation with the actress on this week’s episode of her weekly food show, Mercy’s Menu.
Patience asked: “Do you remember when you were younger before you got married when I told you that the photos u take today, your children will see them tomorrow and immediately the kind of lifestyle you lived?
Mercy Johnson acknowledged her statement by saying “Yes you did, you told me Mercy dress properly, you will have kids and when they grow up, they will ask you, why are you looking this way, yes I remember, I’m lucky but i still learned the hard way really”.
Patience Ozokwor also disclosed why she did not remarry after losing her spouse years ago on the show.
“I wanted to remarry but my kids had already come of age and they pleaded with me not to marry another man and they promised they will be my husband. They asked me to stay single for them so their friends will not laugh at them that at their age their mum remarried and I understood them, though it was selfish of them but i paid the huge sacrifice for them, no sacrifice is too huge for family.”
Patience Ozokwor went on to explain why she no longer wears jewellery or makeup.
“It was my son God used for me, he had a dream twice of me with my natural face and hair on and God told him, he preferred me looking that way than when i use make up and accessories, by the third time he had the dream, i just knew this is it, i had to stop “.
