A Nigerian man has gone viral after revealing an unexpected private message he received from popular actress Mercy Johnson Okojie.

Man Shares Emotional DM from Mercy Johnson

The man, known on TikTok as @Big Tony, posted the message and explained what led to it.

According to him, Mercy Johnson personally contacted him after he defended her brand against online criticism.

In the message she sent, she wrote:

“I am always teary listening to you. I don’t know what to say but thank you so much. I do not take this for granted. Hmm thank you so much,”

He said the message surprised him and made him feel seen and appreciated.

Why the Actress Reached Out

The TikTok user had earlier made a video supporting Mercy Johnson’s sanitary pad brand, which had been criticised over pricing.

Some online users argued that sanitary pads should not be expensive since they are essential items.

In his defence, he explained the cost of running a business and manufacturing products, especially for someone still building a production structure.

He said his argument came from personal experience, having started a business at a young age.

After the video went viral, he claimed the actress watched it and decided to reach out privately.

“I Feel Really Honored” – TikTok User Reacts

The man expressed excitement and gratitude over the message, saying it encouraged him to continue creating content.

In his words:

“I got a message from Mercy Johnson and I feel really honored to get such a message from Mercy Johnson. I feel seen, I’m happy. I was really, really happy seeing that message from Mercy Johnson. It’s not just a message, it’s more of an encouragement to keep doing what I’m doing, and people are seeing me now. Watch this video to the end, I have a tip for the content creator watching this video. First of all, let me thank Mercy Johnson for sending me such a message. For someone of her prestige, of her caliber, to drop her fame, her influence and everything to send me a message just to thank me for the video I made about our brand.”

He also added:

“The video I made without the intention of partnership or ambassadorship, and maybe I made that video because I wanted to go viral or get engagement. No, I only made that video because I started a business very young, and as someone who started a business at age nineteen, I know what it takes to grow a business and I know what it takes to create one. Yes, you see all these businesses, it takes a lot to build a business, even more when it comes to manufacturing, and she doesn’t even have a manufacturing company yet. That means she spent more than someone who already has a factory. So I just made a video to set the record straight, and she sent me that message. That says a lot about the kind of person Mercy Johnson is. Yes, not everyone can do that.”
