Celebrated Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson has launched a powerful solidarity movement in support of fellow actress Regina Daniels amid reports of marital challenges.
Mercy Johnson showed her support by changing her Instagram profile picture, a gesture symbolising unity and encouragement for Regina.
Known as Regina’s godmother and mentor, Mercy has been a steadfast source of emotional strength during these trying times.
This act of solidarity comes as Regina Daniels faces public scrutiny over her marriage to Senator Ned Nwoko, with rumors of marital discord intensifying.

Mercy Johnson’s public backing is seen as part of a broader Nollywood sisterhood that stands by their own, offering both moral and emotional support.
Mercy has also been vocally concerned about issues surrounding Regina’s family, including calling for the release of Regina’s brother, Sammy West, who was reportedly detained amid the marital crisis.
Mercy called for the release of Sammy West, who was allegedly arrested on the order of Ned Nwoko.
The revered thespian stated that the arrest was a form of injustice.
“The worst form of injustice is pretended justice. A child was arrested, no one can or has been allowed to see him for two days, he was flown from Lagos to Abuja, and was allegedly taken to court from the airport. How did we get here? Nigeria,” the actress lamented.
This came after Regina alleged on Monday, November 10, that her estranged husband, Mr Nwoko, the senator representing Delta North, ordered the arrest of her brother and put her sister in fear of arrest.

Nairobi News earlier reported that the couple’s troubled marriage became public after Regina alleged that the lawmaker physically assaulted her.
The 25-year-old further revealed that she was no longer interested in continuing her marriage to the 64-year-old, stating that she could no longer endure the alleged abuse.
Meanwhile, on his part, the Senator, Mr Nwoko, alleged that Regina was under the influence of hard drugs, which caused her public outburst.
