Nollywood actress Angela Okorie said she regretted calling fellow actress Mercy Johnson a witch and has beg for forgiveness.
Speaking in a video shared on her Instagram page, Okorie said her feud with Mercy Johnson was caused by third parties and having reflected on her the issues, she wants bygone to be bygone.
She said in the video: “Hi everybody, this is your one and only Legit Queen. I just want to say a very big thank you to all my fans around the world. I mean, I don’t know what I might have done for you guys to show me this massive love. I’m not a perfect being. Yes, I am not.
“So, this video is specifically for Mercy and her kids and her family.
“When you are getting older, a lot of things will be leaving you. While we were growing in the industry, some people will come and tell me that Mercy said, some people will tell me that Angela said. They have been issues, quarrels, chaos, logherheads, you know, and at this age, I don’t think this is what I want.
“I just want to apologise to you if it’s just my words, if it’s the words I have written anytime your name pops out on social media. I am deeply sorry. You are not a witch. You are not what people are calling you. This is just to say I am sorry.
“We don’t know where our kids will meet each other tomorrow. They might be best of friends. These kids have been travelling far and wide. They can meet anywhere in the world and they can be best of friends, and we as mothers, we cannot stop them from being friends.
“I do not love the fact that they call Mercy’s kids which is bullying them in school and all that. If they do it to my child, I won’t take it.
“So this is to say I am sorry. Deeply sorry for everything. I love everybody. Like the Bible will say, make peace with all men. I am making peace with everybody. I don’t know who I might have offended. Please knowingly or unknowingly, Biko.
“I am sorry, please forgive. Legit Queen is not a troublesome person. I’m the sweetest soul you can ever see or meet in your life. I am deeply sorry for everything I might have written or said against you. Mercy, this is a new beginning. You are my friend and you are still my friend. I will never listen to whatever anybody’s gonna tell me about you again. If there is anything I hear, I will give you a call.
“Like when we spoke on the phone with me, you apologised to me, said you’re sorry, and I accepted you wholeheartedly.
“God in heaven knows that I don’t have anything against you. I love you, and I pray that God blesses you and lifts you higher wherever you are in Jesus’ name.”
The apology comes days after reports that Okorie was arrested in Lagos by operatives of the Lagos State Criminal Investigation Department over allegations linked to cyberstalking, threats and harassment.
She was later granted bail in the sum of ₦5 million.
Mercy Johnson and Angela Okorie...no hard feelings.
