Nollywood actor Rotimi Salami has left fans emotional after pouring out his heart in a touching Mother’s Day tribute to his late friend, Allwell Ademola.
While many celebrated with joy, Rotimi’s message carried deep pain as he reflected on her absence. He revealed that her final project, Kilanko, is now showing in cinemas — a dream she had before her passing — but heartbreakingly, she isn’t here to witness the love and recognition.
Describing the film as powerful and thought-provoking, he expressed sadness that she couldn’t “receive her flowers” for such a meaningful work centered on motherhood. His words struck a deeper chord as he questioned life itself — whether it’s truly about celebration or loss.
Despite the grief, Rotimi urged fans to support the movie, emphasizing that it stands as one of her final legacies.
The actor has remained vocal about his pain since her sudden death, previously opening up about sleepless nights, endless tears, and the difficulty of moving on. Their bond ran deep — from shared New Year traditions to years of friendship that built unforgettable memories.
He also addressed critics who accused him of using her passing for promotion, shutting them down firmly and defending the importance of honoring loved ones through their work.
Allwell Ademola reportedly passed away after a cardiac arrest, leaving behind a legacy that continues to touch lives through her craft.
Now, with Kilanko in cinemas, Rotimi’s emotional tribute serves as both a reminder of love lost and a call to celebrate a life that made impact — even in absence.
