Mercy Johnson-Okojie, the actress, has responded to rumours suggesting she underwent weight loss surgery after fans noticed her slimmer appearance.
As reported by TheNewsGuru, the mother of four recently created a buzz by sharing a video of herself spending time with her children, but her noticeable weight loss has caught the attention of many.
She captioned the video, “My shoulder nor dey pain me oo, I born four children. My Squad is complete. Happy Easter Team.”
However, many fans noticed the actress’ slimmer physique, which received praise from some, while others expressed concerns.
Addressing the claims in a recent Instagram post, the mother of four acknowledged her transformation but clarified that it was due to her weight loss products, not surgery.
She humorously dismissed the idea of undergoing any surgical procedure, stating that her husband, a “traditional Esan man,” would never allow it.
“I have been selling weight loss products for years, which means that when there is an innovation in weight loss, I’ll be among the first to know,” she said.
“We have the Mercy Magic tea that comes with a meal plan, we have the pill which is very coded and now my latest finding is the lean fast.
“It will dry you up in two months. This is no surgery zone. I’m married to an Esan man who didn’t even let me pierce a second hole in my ear. So, is it my belly I would tear?”
