Mercy Johnson, Adekunle Gold, Kehinde Bankole, other Nigerian celebrities reveal their Christmas plans
It’s that time of the year when people around the world
celebrate Christmas. But this year, it seems Nigerian celebrities are engrossed
with work as recession bites deep.
JOAN OMIONAWELE speaks to some of them on their plans for
Christmas. Their responses:
Kehinde Bankole: Christmas will still stand strong as we
have made every other thing work. This year’s celebration will not be affected
despite the fact that Nigeria has constantly been in some form of recession or
the other before now through which we Nigerians have learnt to cut spending,
thrive and strategise better and plan living conveniently as much as we could
try. We still thank God.
Adekunle Gold: I have a lot of shows this year, I really
don’t have special plans, it’s just work, work and work.
Juliet Ibrahim: I’ll be spending it with my family and
having a swell time with them as usual.
Mercy Johnson: I will be busy filming my TV show, Mercy,
marriage, cooking and kids and then I will also do my yearly charity work with
my hubby while manning the homefront and kids in celebration of the birth of
Christ. I also hope to make myself better, as well as my family and career in
the coming year, with God on my mind at all times.
Gregory Ojefua: I’ll be busy working a few days before and
after christmas. Most importantly. I’ll have to canvas for votes as I was
nominated for best Actor for AMVCA 2017. I’ll also take time to rest and visit
friends whom I have not seen in a while.
Ruth Kadiri: Wow, I never knew it was already Christmas, Ive
been busy on set and busy with the production of my new movie, ‘Trouble comes
to town’.
I really cannot wait for this year to come to an end. I’ll
be working on set a day after Christmas, so I won’t say I have any holidays.
Toyin Aimakhu: -It’s going to be a working holiday for me. I
have events lined up, movie shoots and premieres which would go on probably
till New Year’s Eve.
