Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson tried hopping on the viral TikTok ‘Holy Spirit’ trend, but the bird had other plans – it refused to fly!
Posting the video on Instagram, Mercy shared her struggle:
“E reach my turn, bird nor gree fly ooo. It is 1.30am. Who is coming? Nor fear jor.”
Fans couldn’t help but react hilariously:
- Sweezy (Regina Daniels’ brother) wrote: “I cover myself with the blood of Jesus.”
- hilaryklinton commented: “Mama the bird no wan fly. Be like you force am.”
- Others joked about her failed flight, calling it a “bird rebellion.”
The trend involves celebrities interacting with a bird representing the Holy Spirit – some soar successfully, others… not so much. Funke Akindele, for instance, flew gracefully, joining a growing list including Kiekie, Nkechi Blessing, Samuel Banks, and Mr Lively.
This comes on the heels of other viral nostalgia trends like the “2026 is the new 2016”, where stars revisited throwback moments that defined their decade. Celebrities like BBNaija Queen Mercy, Laura Ikeji, Mercy Aigbe, Toke Makinwa, Bolanle Ninalowo, and Stella Damasus shared personal milestones, showing fans how far they’ve come.
Mercy’s “grounded flight” may have failed, but her humor and engagement with fans show she’s still soaring in her own way – just not on the bird… yet.
