Popular Nollywood actor Kunle Remi has expressed concern over the worsening insecurity across Nigeria, urging citizens not to become emotionally desensitised to the pain and suffering affecting many families.

The actor shared the emotional message online while reflecting on the growing number of displaced children, parents and communities affected by violence.

Kunle Remi Speaks On Human Suffering

According to the movie star, many children are currently forced to sleep in forests under difficult and frightening conditions due to insecurity.

He also spoke about mothers struggling helplessly to protect their children while families continue to live in fear.

“As you go to bed tonight, remember there are children sleeping in forests… imagine the cold, the bugs, the fear, the discomfort,” he wrote.

“Remember there is a mother holding her baby, helpless. Parents praying for safety. Schools living in fear.”

Questions Ongoing Political Campaigns

Kunle Remi also questioned why political campaigns and election activities continue normally despite the tragedies happening in different parts of the country.

The actor criticised what he described as society’s tendency to quickly move on from painful incidents without sustained empathy for victims.

“And somehow, in the middle of all this… election campaigns and preparations still continue. Bloggers are posting election like everything is normal,” he added.

‘May We Never Stop Feeling Compassion’

The actor concluded by warning Nigerians against becoming emotionally numb to violence and suffering.

“May we never become so used to tragedy that we stop feeling it,” he stated.

His comments have since generated reactions online, with many Nigerians agreeing that insecurity and humanitarian suffering deserve more attention and empathy from both leaders and citizens.
