The ongoing feud among Nollywood stars has taken a more intense turn as actress Angela Okorie delivers a scathing response to Regina Daniels, following Daniels’ public criticism of her comments about fellow actress Mercy Johnson.
The drama began when Angela Okorie took to Instagram Live, alleging that Mercy Johnson is battling a serious illness and advising her to seek forgiveness from those she may have wronged. Okorie’s remarks sparked outrage, with fans and fellow celebrities accusing her of being insensitive and disrespectful.
One of the loudest voices in the backlash was Regina Daniels, who did not mince words in defending Mercy Johnson. In a fiery Instagram comment, Regina blasted Angela.
I’m sorry and with all due respect, aunty Angela you dey m@d! Abeg no forgive because for this side, we no dey forgive… she get pikin wey gidigba. No dey shalaye!!!” she wrote.
Daniels further criticized Okorie for speaking harshly about a mother, warning that Mercy Johnson’s children might one day encounter such content online. She described Okorie’s comments as lacking in sense and decency.
In a swift and aggressive response via Instagram story, Angela Okorie hit back hard. Addressing Regina directly, she mocked her marriage to billionaire politician Ned Nwoko, saying:”You feel because you married a grandpa you can talk to me? If you insult me again, I will remind you what you have forgotten.”
Okorie went on to accuse Regina of lacking home training and self-respect, advising young girls not to follow her footsteps. She warned Regina to stay in her lane:
“Last warning @regina.daniels. I no dey see anybody wey no get respect o.” she wrote.
In another post, Angela further ridiculed Regina, implying that she was being used by others to speak on their behalf. She recalled how Regina once idolized her as a child, suggesting that her younger colleague has fallen short of expectations.
“Regina where Mercy dey those years wey you dey come my house? You said you wanted to be like me. Now you’re grown and I thought your IQ would be higher… but babygirl, you are nothing like me.”
Angela continued her tirade by criticizing Regina’s marriage and accusing her of being driven by money:
“You have long throat for money na why you marry Wealthy old man… I don’t have long throat for money. Your choice of men no be my choice.”
The feud has stirred up wide reactions across social media, with fans split between supporting Mercy Johnson and calling for restraint among the actresses. Meanwhile, neither Mercy Johnson nor her husband has publicly commented on the matter.
As tensions remain high, observers are calling for maturity and privacy, especially considering the public stature of those involved and the potential impact on their young fans.
