Kunle Remi reveals how entertainer gave him candle, oil before his industry break

Meanwhile, Legit.ng recalls reporting that before joining the industry, Kunle Remi was informed by an entertainer who was introduced to him by a friend that he hadn't paid his dues.

While speaking in an interview on The Honest Bunch podcast, the actor noted that the entertainer he met kept mentioning names to show how well-connected he is.

Remi then went on to reveal that he was told by the man to 'bend over', and it suddenly almost seemed like a good idea with the way it was painted.
