"What Alexx Ekubo SHould Have Done": Yul Edochie Laments About Late Actor
Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has broken his silence over the death of his close friend and colleague Alexx Ekubo, expressing deep pain over the loss while revealing that the late actor kept his illness private from those closest to him.
Taking to social media to pour out his grief, Edochie described Ekubo as a "good friend and brother," praising him for the warmth and positive energy he brought to every room and for making the world a better place simply by being himself.

However, the actor reserved his most emotional remarks for a post on Twitter, where he expressed regret that Ekubo had chosen to keep his illness hidden rather than confide in his closest friends.
"I've been cold since the news of Alexx Ekubo's passing broke. Ikuku you no do us well oo, you no do us well at all. You should have privately informed some of your good friends that you were sick. We for come dey with you, everybody go off phone come. To spend time with you and give you strength. You never know, help could come from where you least expected. This style of blanking everyone till death, e no good oo Chief Ikuku. The pain you inflicted on us is terrible," Edochie wrote.
The post resonated widely online, drawing an outpouring of reactions from fans and fellow industry figures who shared in the grief over Ekubo's passing.
