Alexx Ekubo’s longtime friend mourns him
Identified as @sharonojong on Instagram, the lady spoke about her relationship with the actor, sharing how they had known each other for over 20 years.
She said in her Instagram post:
“There are some people you meet in life and you immediately understand that goodness is still real. Alexx Ikenna Ekubo-Okwareke was that person. A friend for over 20 years that stayed loyal. Not perfect. Not performative. Just genuinely good.
“The kind of man that made you say, “this one was raised right.” He carried respect naturally, laughter everywhere, and stood for truth even when it was uncomfortable.
“Before the fame, before the spotlight, Alexx loved God deeply. He loved people, family, food, privacy and life itself. And somehow, even with all the noise that comes with visibility, he never lost that softness, that humanity.
“What breaks my heart the most is knowing he carried so much pain over the past few years and barely spoke about it. Even in his own pain, he still found room to pray for me, encourage me, and show kindness to others.
“There’s nothing I could write here that I never told him while he was here. He knew he was deeply loved by me. We met in UNICAL as young dreamers chasing acting and impossible ideas. I eventually stepped away, but Alexx knew he belonged in front of the camera. He kept pushing until the world finally saw what we already knew.
“And even after success, some things never changed. He would leave the Island to join us at COZA, and after church we would sit for hours talking about God, life, dreams and purpose.
“People see the actor, the celebrity, the public figure. But I knew the human being. The friend. The heart behind the smile. The romantic guy. The family guy. The dreamer. The daddy. Alexx will talk you into believing in yourself."
