Notable Nollywood actor, Kunle Remi breaks silence about being left out of the nominations for the Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards (AMVCA) 2023 despite his lead role in the movie Anikulapo. It would be recalled that during the 2023 edition of the AMVCA event, Anikulapo received 16 nominations in 15 categories but Kunle made none.
Addressing the issue during an interview on the TV show ‘Your View’, Kunle Remi stated that the snub did not affect his worth or fame. “Nomination, well, I fell into the category of non-nominated artistes. It doesn’t reduce my value, fame and energy,” he stated. He also stated that his role as “Saro” was not motivated by the desire for an award, but rather by a challenge. It is worth noting that rumours circulated that the actor was snubbed due to comments he made in an interview about a senior colleague who attempted to persuade him to engage in homosexuality.
