The 19-year-old son of acclaimed filmmaker, Kunle Afolayan, Dieko Afolayan, has responded directly to the growing online criticism surrounding his personal expression and identity.
The debate began after his appearance at the premiere of his father’s latest film, ‘Recall’, where his fashion choices and demeanor sparked speculation about his sexuality and accusations of Western influence on his views of gender identity.
Amidst the mixed reactions, several supporters defended Dieko, condemning the backlash as unnecessary cyberbullying and unwarranted criticism.
In the face of harsh online reactions, Dieko stood firm, unapologetically defending his authenticity and commitment to self-expression in a society that often pressures individuals to conform.
