According to a source, there are underground plans by the movie marketers under the aegis of Film and Video Producers and Marketers Association of Nigeria, FVPMAN, to blacklist Mercy Johnson Okojie, in what they call " Withdrawing of service from her".
The source who disclosed this latest move against the Actress, said the association decided to take this action following the
"unbecoming attitude of the actress as it affects her work".
Members of the association were said to have met last Monday, in Onitsha, Anambra State, to fine-tune plans to blacklist the actress who recently returned to Nollywood after months of being away in the United States, where she gave birth to her first child.
In a bid to shed more light on reasons to blacklist the actress, it was disclosed that the marketers accused Mercy Johnson of forming the habit of disappearing while on location after she has been paid for the job. She was also accused of giving them difficult conditions.
However, the source further hinted that the marketers have vowed to sanction any member who disregard the decision to blacklist the actress.
He also revealed that the leadership of the association has advised its members to release all the films that Mercy Johnson featured in, on or before January, 2014.
Meanwhile, efforts to contact Mercy to react to the allegations proved abortive as her cell-phone has been switched-off.
Recall, however, that upon her return to Nollywood, Mercy was bombarded with several scripts from different producers and marketers who wanted to get her on their movies.
