Kemi Olunloyo reveals why Kunle Remi Was Snubbed By AMVCA

Investigative reporter Kemi Olunloyo has revealed why popular actor Kunle Remi was passed over for an AMVCA nomination despite giving a standout performance in the film Anikulapo.

Recall that the Anikulapo movie, directed by Kunle Afolayan, received the most 2023 AMVCA nominations.

However, Kunle didn’t receive any nominations despite giving a fantastic performance in the film.

Kemi Olunloyo revealed on her Instagram page that Kunle Remi was passed over for an AMVCA nomination because of his recent interview in which he claimed that a certain well-known person attempted to seduce him into homosexuality.

In a lengthy note, she wrote;

“Actor Kunle Remi was snubbed in the AMVCA Nominations despite a stellar performance in the Kunle Afolayan movie.

Why? Alleged ‘disrespect’ for a senior colleague. He was said to have been excluded because he allegedly stepped on some toes in the industry following an interview he granted an online platform some weeks back where he alleged that a certain popular figure tried to lure him into homosexuality. Shame that the same movie bagged 16 nominations and he didn’t get one. That’s the Nigerian movie industry for you.
