Prince Odi Okojie, husband of Nollywood star Mercy Johnson and member of the Edo State House of Representatives, has once again demonstrated his dedication to community development through a massive empowerment initiative.
The politician provided wide-ranging support to his constituents, including farm produce and vehicles for farmers, laptops for students, security patrol vehicles for police, and assistance to members of the Okada association to enhance mobility.
Mercy Johnson proudly shared moments from her husband’s public donations on her Instagram story, showcasing the scale of the outreach.
While many applauded Prince Odi’s generosity, others speculated it might be politically motivated with the next election approaching.

This is not the first time Prince Odi has shown such generosity. In 2022, he and Mercy reached out to widows and women in their community, gifting them essentials. The lawmaker also fulfilled a promise to build a house for a 70-year-old man he had never met.
Mercy has been a strong pillar of support throughout her husband’s political journey, actively campaigning during the 2023 House of Representatives election. Upon his victory, Prince Odi credited Mercy’s selfless dedication as a key factor in his success, praising her during his Inauguration Thanksgiving Service as a loving and caring partner.
