Nollywood actor Kunle Remi has finally addressed his snub at the nominations of the Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards, AMVCA 2023.

It’s no news that Kunle Remi was snubbed from the nominations list of the prestigious awards despite his undeniable role in Kunle Afolayan’s epic drama, Anikulapo, which earned 16 nominations.

Anikulapo bagged 16 nominations from AMVCA, while the lead actor, Kunle Remi, whose role geared many to watch the movie, was not part of the 16 nominations.

Speaking in an interview, Your View, Kunle Remi aired his opinion about his snub from the award. According to him, AMVCA does not belong to him neither does he host the show. He claimed his snub has no way reduced him, his stylishness, fame, or energy.

Kunle Remi claimed he is unshaken by the snub because his role as ‘Saro’ was not taken because of an award, but rather because of a challenge.

Many have concluded that Kunle Remi’s snub was a result of an interview he granted where he spoke about a senior colleague trying to lure him into homosexuality.

Controversial self-acclaimed investigative journalist, Kemi Olunloyo, claimed Kunle Remi was snubbed by AMVCA because of the controversial interview and she promised to mention names of the senior colleagues.

Teddy A heavily shades AMVCA over Kunle Remi’s snub

Recall that former Big Brother Naija housemate Tope Adebuniyan, known as Teddy A, reacted to the nomination snub of Kunle Remi by AMVCA.

Teddy A heavily shaded the organizers of the award for omitting Kunle Remi’s name despite his role in the epic Anikulapo drama.

The reality star cum actor and singer queried if Kunle Remi’s snub was a result of an interview where the actor spilled some secrets.

Teddy, however, congratulated his colleagues whose names were included in the nomination lists, wishing them success.

He wrote, “Congrats to all the AMVCA nominees, but how didn’t Kunle Remi get any nominations after what we all saw in Anikulapo???

“Congrats to all of una wey dem nominate o but why dem omit @kunleremiofficial??? Was it because of THAT interview??? Awon alphabetical community. I’m just asking respectfully.”
