Nollywood star Kunle Remi and his wife, Tiwi, have officially welcomed their first child, joyfully introducing their little one to the world. The proud parents took to Instagram to share the heartwarming news, revealing both the challenges they faced and the beautiful name they chose for their baby — Eemi Oluwa, meaning “The Breath of God.”
A Journey of Faith and Resilience
In an emotional video, Kunle and Tiwi opened up about the difficult path to their baby’s arrival. The couple faced a daunting medical diagnosis that resulted in Tiwi being placed on extended bed rest. After the premature arrival of their child, they endured an intense 80-day stay in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).
“From juggling demanding work schedules to hopping on flights, both locally and internationally. From being apart to finally being together,” Kunle shared. “From an early arrival to the unfolding of God’s perfect timing. From waiting, countless NICU visits, and clinging to God for 11 weeks and 3 days — that’s 80 days of faith.”
Despite the uncertainties, Kunle and Tiwi’s unwavering faith carried them through, serving as a testament to resilience and the power of hope.
A Name with Profound Meaning
Choosing to name their baby Eemi Oluwa reflects their gratitude and belief in divine intervention. The actor described their child as a “wonder” and credited God’s faithfulness for their family’s triumph over adversity.
“Our story is living proof that God is God — unfailing, unwavering, and faithful till the very end,” Kunle wrote, his heartfelt words resonating with fans and well-wishers.
Fans Celebrate with the Couple
Following the touching announcement, celebrity friends and fans flooded the comments section with congratulatory messages. Many admired the couple’s strength and openness, appreciating their willingness to share such a personal and inspiring journey.
Kunle concluded the video by encouraging others who may be navigating their own challenges, offering their story as a source of hope and reassurance.
