There is nothing wrong in Mercy Chinwo performing at PDP’s rally in Uyo. Allow her to be. It is not by force for someone to support your party or otherwise.

I'm yet to fathom why PDP invited Mercy Chinwo to their rally today. A gospel minister in a political rally? I need the video to hear the songs she sang.

Does it mean that PDP finally needs God's intervention now?

Naija people dey carry politics for head like gala! Mercy Chinwo performed at PDP rally in Akwa Ibom and some people want to crucify her! It is laughable because she is an artist doing her job and performance doesn't equate endorsement. So an APC doctor can't treat a PDP patient?

Mercy Chinwo performed at the PDP rally in Akwaibom as per rally of the ministers of God. Fraudsters everywhere parading as ministers. Ministers of their pocket.

Apparently, she's paid with millions stolen from Akwaibom state coffers. #MoneyMinisters#FakeMinisters #Frauds

Pdp campaign in Akwa ibom is very uninspiring. The women there look tired and uninterested like they were forced to attend.

All Mercy Chinwo’s attempt to cheer them up with her vocals is proving futile.
