Mercy Johnson-Okojie, a Nollywood actress, has talked candidly about her health issues and abrupt weight reduction.
Because of her dramatic weight loss, the movie star lately caused alarm and created a lot of conversation on social media.
During a recent interview with veteran actress Joke Silva, Okojie revealed that she had a thyroid ectomy surgery after having a cancer scare.
She said, “I had a cancer scare and I had my thyroid removed. I was like a journey for us because we have kids and my lastborn was six month old at that time, we [my husband and I] kept saying, we had to understand this is the new us, let’s go get the surgery done.
“When we got there, they said that I was going to be on medication for the rest of my life. We had to sit down, they were saying I can’t miss my medication, telling me the side effects. So, I’m reconciling with this you are saying [my weight loss]. I’m at the point where you realised that this is where we are, let’s grow from here and live in this comfort zone.”
