“I Had No Idea Who I Was” — Kunle Remi’s Wife Tiwi Explains Why She Left Social Media
Tiwi, wife of Nollywood actor Kunle Remi, has opened up about her decision to step away from social media, revealing that she left because she felt disconnected from her identity and purpose.
“I Had No Idea Who I Was” — Kunle Remi’s Wife Tiwi Explains Why She Left Social Media
Tiwi has recently launched a new YouTube platform, Bare by BKO. Speaking on the show, Tiwi explained that many had often wondered why she is not on platforms like X, TikTok or Instagram. She revealed that her absence was intentional and deeply personal.
According to her:
“I had no idea who I was and what I was meant to be contributing to other people, and therefore, I didn’t feel like being online and using my influence in a lukewarm way was enough to justify spending so much time on an app.”
Tiwi said she realised she needed to step away to rediscover herself, adding that she believes the break helped prepare her for the life she now lives as the wife of a public figure.
In another revealing moment, she shared that she felt God was “cleaning out” her digital footprint before she met her husband, saying she had no idea she would one day marry a superstar with such a strong public image.
She also disclosed that she currently uses only LinkedIn and does not have social media apps on her personal phone. According to her, if she ever needs to check social media, she uses Kunle Remi’s phone and only for specific purposes, not mindless scrolling.
Her comments have sparked conversations online about social media pressure, digital identity, and intentional living, with many praising her honesty and self-awareness.
Using Tiwi story as inspiration, perhaps the best move is sometimes to log off and enjoy the peace.
