Etinosa made clear that the tribute was deliberate, choosing to speak publicly precisely because Mercy Johnson tends to shy away from the spotlight. According to the actress, Mercy consistently shows up for people around her, not just for herself, and does so without seeking recognition.
"Mama no too like publicity and noise so we don't post," Etinosa wrote, before going on to explain why she felt compelled to break that unspoken rule.
She credited Mercy with advocating for her at influential industry spaces, describing her as someone who mentions her name "on big tables" even when no cameras are watching. Beyond that, Etinosa made it clear she is also a genuine fan of the actress independent of their personal connection.
In her post, she wrote:
"Dear Mercy Johnson, Permit me to do this publicly ❤️. Since 2018 almost 10 years ago! You have been my bedrock. My pillar of strength and my King of support!!!! Mama no too like publicity and noise so we don't post but you see this woman, she is selfless and she comes through for everyone not just me.
