The nominees for the prestigious awards were unveiled by popular TV personalities Bisola Aiyeola and Adjetey Anang on Sunday. However, much to the surprise of many, the actor’s name was conspicuously missing from the list, despite his outstanding portrayal of the character ‘Saro’ in the movie ‘Anikulapo,’ which garnered a remarkable 16 nominations.
After some Nigerian movie enthusiasts expressed their astonishment at Remi’s absence from the ‘Best Actor’ category in the AMVCA nomination list, the actor took to Instagram on Monday to express his appreciation for the unwavering support from his fans and fellow colleagues. He also extended his congratulations to his peers who were nominated for this year’s AMVCA Awards.
He also light-heartedly joked about winning his category on May 20, which is the date for the AMVCA award ceremony, if he had been included in the list of nominees. Despite the omission, Remi displayed humor and positivity in his Instagram post, showing his ability to take the situation in stride.
