According to Mercy, she has made some mistakes and choices she is not proud of in the past, adding that her sense of judgment and maturity has now improved with age in recent times.

“When I do that, what would the younger girls do? When you grow past a certain level, you try to go ahead and do better. For me, you don’t need people to tell you what’s right or wrong,” she said.

“Age is telling on me. I’ve grown past that level, I’m answerable to too many people: my husband, my kids. I hate to embarrass them in any way. My daughter is growing.

“She gets hold of my phone sometimes, begins to google, and goes like, ‘Mum, my friends said…’ And they’re very inquisitive.

Mercy’s ‘The Legend Of Inikpi’ movie premiered in cinemas nationwide and in Ghana on January 24, 2020.
