The biological mother of late Nollywood actor Alexx Ekubo has broken her silence through her close friend, Emmanuella Ubah.

In a new update, Emmanuella Ubah revealed she was speaking with the permission of Alexx’s biological mother.
She described her 20-year relationship with the family and emphasised that Alexx had been trying to reconnect with his real mum before his death.
"I will speak on this matter only this once, and I do so with the permission of Alex Ekubo's birth mother. I have known this woman personally for over 20 years, both in Europe and in America. It is deeply insulting and unacceptable to see a faceless blogger reduce her to derogatory names. Whatever disagreements may exist, no woman deserves to be publicly humiliated in that manner," Ubah said.
She added: "From everything I have personally known over the years, she never stopped loving her children or hoping for reconciliation. To suggest otherwise is simply not consistent with the woman I know. My understanding is that Alex had been trying to reconnect with his mother before he became gravely ill. That makes this loss even more heartbreaking for those who loved him."
Ubah stressed that Alexx’s mother is financially comfortable and dismissed speculation about property or money.
She concluded: "This will be the only time I speak publicly on this matter. My prayer is that healing, truth, and peace will eventually prevail for everyone involved. But I will not sit silently while the character of a woman I have known and respected for over two decades is unjustly attacked."
