Nevertheless, despite having a wonderful performance in the movie, Kunle didn’t get any nominations.
On her Instagram page, Kemi Olunloyo disclosed that Kunle Remi was not nominated for an AMVCA award because of a recent interview in which he claimed that a famous person had tried to entice 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.
