What caused Alexx Ekubo's death?
Alexx Ekubo, born on April 10, 1986, reportedly passed away on Monday, May 11, 2026, after being admitted into the Evercare Hospital.
Initially, it had been widely reported that the 40-year-old actor had suffered complications from liver cancer.

Before his passing, Alexx Ekubo's whereabouts had been of concern to many as he had been off social media for a long time. His last post on social media was in December 2024.
However, it seems Omoni Oboli, a close friend of Ekubo, had been in constant communication with him.
Omoni Oboli shares Alexx Ekubo WhatsApp chats
In the screenshots, dated October 2025, Omoni shared a message from a fan who claimed she had a secret romantic relationship with Ekubo and blamed her for the breakdown of his engagement to Acholonu. The fan alleged that Omoni was the reason Fancy called off the planned wedding.
Ekubo's response was swift and laced with his signature dry humour.
"Who be this one. It is the dumb confidence in saying something untrue," he wrote.
Omoni was equally unbothered, if exasperated.
"Like serious confidence. I kuku tire for people," she replied.
The exchange, light and affectionate, now reads as a window into the kind of friendship they shared, one comfortable enough to laugh at absurdity together, even when the absurdity was aimed at them.
The screenshots of their chats were shared alongside photos showing different moments in the relationship.
In her caption, Omoni Oboli thanked Alexx Ekubo for his friendship, while expressing her love for him.
"How do I put over a decade of the most beautiful intentional friendship into words? My one true male bestie. 💔 Words fail me, Alexx! You were LIGHT! 🤍 Thank you for the gift of your friendship. Thank you for finding me worthy to be your bestie. To say I I love you is an understatement. I ADORE you! 😍"
