"Alex Ekubo kept his marriage away from the vulture internet. Now that he’s gone, blogs are already digging up and posting his wife. But na some of una still talk say na gay. These blogs are vampires. The only crime is being a public figure."
Reacting to the skitmaker’s post, Yul Edochie argued that Ekubo should not have hidden his marriage. He stressed that public figures must learn to live freely without fear of criticism.
Edochie stated:
"He shouldn't have hidden anything from anyone. It wasn't necessary. People must learn to stop worrying about what people say. No matter what you do in life, people must talk. So leave them to talk. Leave blogs to blog. To be great in life, you must never make yourself small for anyone or any reason. Give them things to talk about while you ignore them and enjoy your life."
