“I Love My Wura Regardless”- Remi Surutu’s Daughter Defends Her Amid Backlash
The daughter of Nollywood actress Remi Surutu has spoken out in support of her mother amid criticism over the actress’s alleged ties to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The backlash followed online posts believed to be connected to political campaigning, which sparked reactions from social media users. In response, the actress’s daughter addressed critics directly, making it clear she stands firmly by her mother.
“If he reach your turn no support your mama because of online troll. I love my wura like that regardless,” she said while reacting to the wave of online comments.
Her statement has since stirred mixed reactions online. While some people applauded her for defending her mother, others maintained that public figures should expect criticism, especially when they are linked to political matters.
The situation once again reflects the growing overlap between entertainment and politics in Nigeria, where celebrities often face backlash for openly supporting political parties or candidates.
It also mirrors past incidents. During the 2023 general elections, several Nollywood personalities were criticised and even boycotted over their perceived political affiliations, igniting conversations about personal freedom and public accountability.
