Nollywood Star Kunle Remi Sparks Fierce Debate: Was Nigeria the "Worst" Stop on IShowSpeed's Epic African Tour?

Kunle Remi calls Nigeria IShowSpeed's worst African tour stop, sparking debate on culture vs nightlife in Lagos.


In a bold Instagram story that has ignited nationwide conversations, acclaimed Nollywood actor Kunle Remi ranked Nigeria as the worst destination on American streaming sensation IShowSpeed's 28-day African tour.

Remi didn't mince words, lamenting that Speed's chaotic Lagos visit exposed a Nigeria that has "lost the essence of culture" — overshadowed by fake alcoholic drinks, an all-consuming club and nightlife scene, and rampant street begging instead of authentic heritage and truth.

"After watching IShowSpeed’s journey so far, Nigeria is the worst on my own list. We just really stripped Lagos naked... Seems like we have lost the essence of culture, our truth."

The viral Lagos moments — from massive crowds swarming Speed to birthday celebrations and high-energy street chaos — thrilled millions globally, yet Remi's critique struck a nerve. Supporters praised his honesty about missed opportunities to showcase Nigeria's deeper cultural riches, while others accused him of unfairly dragging the nation amid the genuine excitement Speed's visit generated.

The controversy exploded across media headlines, with outlets like Graphic Online, TheCable, and more framing it as Remi "slamming" or "blasting" Nigeria's portrayal.

At Nollywood Spotlight, we're diving deep into this cultural flashpoint: What does it reveal about Nigeria's global image? How should we balance our vibrant modern energy with timeless heritage when the world is watching?

Nollywood Veteran Stanley Amandi at the Heart of a Shocking Coup Allegation!!

Nollywood actor, director & ex-AGN chairman entangled in alleged 2025 coup plot against Tinubu.


From commanding roles on screen to a real-life national security storm, Stanley Kingsley Amandi (aka Stan K. Amandi) has long been a respected figure in Nollywood. The Enugu-born actor, director, producer, and former Chairman of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) Enugu State chapter has built an impressive career with credits in films like The Album, Tiger King, Cornerstone, and Once Upon a Dream. Known for his authoritative on-screen presence and behind-the-camera talent, Amandi has mentored rising stars and championed actors' rights throughout his journey.

But in early 2026, his name took a dramatic turn. Reports from Premium Times, Punch, BBC Pidgin, and others revealed that Amandi was arrested in September 2025 alongside military officers in connection with an alleged failed coup plot against President Bola Tinubu's administration. Authorities claim he was recruited as a propagandist to shape public narratives and support the unconstitutional takeover, which reportedly included plans to assassinate top officials including the President, Vice President, Senate President, and Speaker.

The Actors Guild of Nigeria has confirmed his detention (now under the Defence Intelligence Agency) and expressed shock at the allegations, noting they initially believed it was a routine matter. As debates rage online about his role, ethnic implications, and the intersection of celebrity influence with politics, Amandi's story highlights the unpredictable twists that can befall even the most dedicated industry figures.

Dive deeper into Stanley Amandi's remarkable career, the full details of the controversy, and what it means for Nollywood in our latest in-depth newsletter.

Aaron Pierre: From Red Carpet Romance to Green Lantern Glory – The Latest Scoop!

Aaron Pierre's Teyana Taylor split & Green Lantern role in HBO's Lanterns 2026: romance & DCU debut details


Hollywood's Aaron Pierre is making headlines once again. The British-Guyanese actor, fresh off his breakout in Rebel Ridge and voice work in Mufasa: The Lion King, has navigated a high-profile split from singer-actress Teyana Taylor while gearing up for one of the most anticipated roles in the DC Universe.

The couple, who first sparked romance rumors in early 2025 and went public with sweet tributes and joint appearances, quietly ended their relationship in late December 2025 after less than a year together. Sources describe the breakup as amicable, with no major drama—just the demands of booming careers pulling them in different directions. Teyana, riding high with Golden Globe buzz for One Battle After Another, even showed subtle support by liking Aaron's first Instagram post of 2026.

But heartbreak hasn't dimmed Pierre's shine. He's set to debut as John Stewart in HBO's Lanterns, the grounded, True Detective-style DCU series co-starring Kyle Chandler as Hal Jordan. Production wrapped in 2025, and the eight-episode first season is now in post-production, with a premiere slated for the end of summer 2026 on HBO and Max. Teasers already tease cosmic action, intense mentorship, and Pierre's charismatic intensity lighting up the screen.

From private personal chapters to stepping into the iconic green ring, Aaron Pierre's journey is one to watch. Dive deeper into the romance details, breakup insights, and exclusive Lanterns updates in this week's Nollywood Spotlight newsletter!

NONE OF THIS IS TRUE – One Of Nollywood’s Most Talked-About Emotional Powerhouse of 2026!

"None of This Is True": gripping Nollywood drama on love, betrayal & double lives. Deyemi Okanlawon shines.


Get ready to be gripped, heartbroken, and completely hooked. Directed by Uduak Patrick, None of This Is True is a raw, unflinching Nigerian drama that dives headfirst into the devastating world of love, lies, betrayal, and double lives.

Gold (Emmanuella Iloba, in a soul-shattering performance) thinks she’s found her perfect man in the charming Daniel (Deyemi Okanlawon, masterfully toxic as ever). But when she discovers he’s secretly married to Kemi (Bolaji Ogunmola, fierce and unforgettable) — with children and a whole hidden family — everything explodes. Pregnant, betrayed, and torn, Gold must choose: stay silent or unleash the truth that could ruin them all.

With explosive confrontations and a script that feels painfully real, this film has fans raving: “This is REAL,” shares one viewer who lived through similar deception. Deyemi owns the double-life role he was born to play, while Bolaji’s fiery Yoruba outbursts had audiences laughing through tears.

Nollywood Powerhouse Bimbo Ademoye Claims Victory in High-Stakes Copyright Battle Over Blockbuster YouTube Hit

Bimbo Ademoye wins copyright battle over viral hit 'Where Love Lives' (18M+ views). Full victory story!


In a triumphant turn for independent filmmakers everywhere, acclaimed actress, producer, and director Bimbo Ademoye has emerged victorious in a fierce copyright dispute that temporarily threatened the monetization of her record-breaking YouTube film Where Love Lives.

Released on Christmas Eve 2025, the star-studded rom-com—featuring Uzor Arukwe, Chioma Nwosu, Osas Ighodaro, and more—exploded to over 18 million views in weeks, captivating audiences with its sharp take on marriage, luxury living, and neighborhood drama.

But success invited trouble: a false copyright claim on a licensed soundtrack (cleared with full approval from artist Ugoccie) was filed by an individual accused of digital theft, halting earnings and sparking public outrage. Bimbo stood firm, publicly calling out the issue and refusing any out-of-court settlement.

Now, justice prevails! The claim has been resolved in her favor, restoring full monetization and affirming her rights. Celebrating the win, Bimbo declared,

“God Doesn’t Play About Me”
