Nollywood actor Kunle Remi has stirred conversations online after sharing an unusual take on how Nigerians should celebrate President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s birthday.
His message, coming amid reports of fresh violence in Plateau State , has left many people talking — and debating 👀
🗣️ The Message That Got People Talking
In a video making rounds online, Kunle Remi encouraged Nigerians to still wish the President a happy birthday… but with a twist.
According to him, people should use images and videos reflecting the pain of recent victims as part of the birthday message.
“There was a woman in pain… that is the image we should use,” he said, referencing recent tragic events.
💔 Linking Celebration With Reality
The actor’s message seems to carry a deeper point — that national celebrations shouldn’t ignore the suffering of citizens, especially during difficult times.
His suggestion?
👉 Let the birthday message also serve as a reminder of the current realities Nigerians are facing.
💬 Reactions Pour In
As expected, social media didn’t stay quiet.
Some people supported his stance, saying it reflects the frustration and emotions many Nigerians are feeling right now.
Others, however, felt the approach was too extreme, arguing that a birthday message shouldn’t be turned into a form of protest.
⚖️ The Bigger Conversation
Beyond the controversy, this moment highlights something deeper:
👉 How do people balance celebration and national pain?
👉 Should public figures use moments like this to send messages?
One thing is certain — the conversation is far from over.
