Nollywood actor Kunle Remi has paid tribute to late filmmaker Kayode Peters on what would have been the director’s 50th birthday.
Peters, a Nigerian film and stage producer, passed away in Canada earlier this year. He was laid to rest on Saturday, August 2, at the Milton Evergreen Cemetery in Ontario, following a funeral service at McKersie & Early House Funeral Home.
Sharing a photo of Peters on Instagram, Kunle Remi sent a heartfelt message, wishing him a heavenly birthday and expressing gratitude for the moments they shared. He assured fans that his love and prayers remain with Peters’ family and promised to always support them.
“Happy heavenly 50th birthday, King KP. Will always be grateful for the time spent together. Our love and prayers with your family. We Dey here for Alexis and your babies. But Baba mii, I get plenty gist o… Lekki flood again… I don shoot 2 films, I Dey produce another… plenty gist about fatherhood… Anyways, keeping all the gist till we see later,” Kunle wrote.
Fans and colleagues joined in honoring the late filmmaker. One Instagram user, @reviews_withgina, wrote, “May his soul continue to rest in perfect peace. KP koko money. Thank you for the gift of Flatmates and more.”
Moses Babatope praised Kunle Remi for the tribute, commenting, “May God honour you for honouring the memory and legacy of this gentle legend. Rest well, sir KP.”

Last month, comedian Bovi also shared an emotional tribute to Peters, recalling how he fell in love with the filmmaker and their first meeting. He noted that their relationship had a rocky start and reflected on a phone call during which he had hoped Peters would work on his sitcom—a project that ultimately never came to fruition.
