"How did she stay without knowing about her brother illness, was there no communication, can she actually stay a week without communicating with the brother nor any family member? I feel her pains but social media won’t help. They should allow Alex to rest."
@aliciakeybabe said:
"I believe Alex was manipulated to stayed out of social media."
@chayzun shared:
"Alex was sick for 2 whole years and his sister didn’t know?!? What kind of sibling are you people then? You mean it’s possible for me to be in the same country with my siblings and not see them?? As how? U showed up at Alexes door and he chased you away? Ok ma."
@thecriticaltee reacted:
"Even his friends said Alex didn’t tell them anything, according to them, he kept telling them that he was fine; even Pastor Jerry Eze. That is what Alex wanted, it has nothing to do with his step mother."
