In a heartfelt and stirring Instagram tribute, Oscar has poured out praise for his wife, the acclaimed filmmaker Kemi Adetiba, following the explosive reception of her latest release, To Kill A Monkey. The film, which only recently debuted, has already set the internet abuzz — igniting conversations, reflections, and acclaim across audiences and critics alike.
In the now-viral post, Oscar didn’t hold back as he described Kemi as nothing short of a “genius”, highlighting the emotional, intellectual, and creative dedication she poured into the film.
“I watched her give everything to this story — her mind, her heart, her discipline, her spirit,” he wrote. “To Kill A Monkey is not an easy film. It’s layered, uncomfortable, and deeply human. And the way everyone is responding to it, so passionately, is a testament to the depth of her voice and the sharpness of her mind.”
The post sheds light not only on the rigorous artistic journey behind the film but also on the personal strength and resilience Kemi brought to bear in crafting a narrative that many are calling one of the most important African stories of the year.
Oscar’s message was also a shoutout to Remi Adetiba, Kemi’s brother and one of the key producers of the film, commending him for his unwavering commitment and leadership.
“You navigated the craziest storms, challenges, and obstacles to produce the heck out of this,” Oscar said, hailing him as a “pillar and driver” of Kemi’s bold vision.
The actor and public figure didn’t stop there. He also extended gratitude to the entire cast and crew, praising their passion and dedication that clearly translated into the finished work.
“Every frame, every performance, every decision behind the scenes mattered, and it shows. You left your fingerprints on something that will stay with people for a long, long time.”
Oscar’s tone throughout the message is deeply personal yet resonant, revealing not just pride in a professional achievement but in the human being behind it — the woman he calls his wife.
He closed his message with a humorous plea to fans to keep streaming the film, joking that even if they’re not watching attentively, they should at least let it play in the background.
“In fact, if we talk on the phone during this period, I want to be hearing To Kill A Monkey playing softly in the background,” he added with a laugh.
To Kill A Monkey has clearly struck a chord — not just with audiences, but with those closest to its creator. With bold themes, layered storytelling, and Kemi Adetiba’s uncompromising vision, the film is quickly shaping up to be one of the most culturally significant releases in recent memory.
And as the love, pride, and applause pour in, one thing is certain: Kemi Adetiba has once again proven why her name is etched among the greats of African cinema.
To Kill A Monkey is now streaming on major platforms.
