“It Does Not Reduce My Value Or Make Me Less Of A Screen God” – Kunle Remi On AMVCA snub (Video)

Despite playing the lead role in the film Anikulapo, popular Nollywood actor Kunle Remi has spoken out about not being included in the nominations for the Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards (AMVCA) 2023.

Recall that Anikulapo garnered 16 nominations in 15 categories for the AMVCA ceremony in 2023, while Kunle received none.

Kunle Remi addressed the matter in an interview on the television program “Your View,” saying that the slight had no bearing on his worth or notoriety.

“I fall into the category of the none nominated artists, it is a new category. It is not my show, its their show.”

“I like the fact that the world spoke, people spoke but we can’t have the answers to that, only them have the answers. But for me it doesn’t reduce my value, it doesn’t make me less of a screen God.”

“Anikulapo which is what people were expecting still broke the record it broke, still number one watched language film next to Squid Game globally.”

“I put in the work, I saw the efforts and I didn’t do that because of the award, I did it because it was a challenge and it is such a privilege to play that character and we would never forget Saro, I think that’s the greatest award.”
