So its probably stale news that mercy Johnson has been banned by Nigerian Movie Marketers for charging exorbitant fees for her movie roles.
No doubt mercy Johnson is a professional to the core and her craft stands her out but with productions done on very meagre budgets which is probably the result of the low quality we are often faced with would it be okay for a single artist to charge within the ranges of 2Million Naira per movie??
Well you might say if they cannot afford it they should use other Actresses right?? Mercy thinks so too see her tweets below..
Wats wrong when u keep quiet till u no wats up?no petition,no complain just fees those who can't afford heineken should stick with 'Kai kai'

Would it be a good Idea to remind mercy that she only came to limelight some couple of years back when there was a similar ban on artistes like Genevieve Nnaji,Omotola Jalade Ekehinde,Richard Mofe Damijo and lots more.
These Actors were banned, there was need for a fresh face,with a thirst and hunger for the spotlight and it all just clicked as good timing for the beautiful star we all love on our screens today.
Nollywood does not have a standard framework of production or even sales.The marketers to an extent are the ones who put their "Monies" on the line and risk the piracy canker worm to still churn out movies. Well aside for individual or syndicated producers like Kunle Afolayan,Tunde Kelani ,the royal arts group amongst others and that's just very few who brave all odds to make quality films with costs running into millions and millions.
So what does 2014 look like for Mercy Johnson?? I really fear for her career, Is it that time for someone else to hit it big like she also did off the ban of other stars? will she sort out her issues with the marketers? Will she begin to see a nosedive?? Will she begin her own production line producing her own movies? or just simply hit the International scene big time? In all, only time will tell!
