Man reflects on life following Alexx's death
Emmanuel noted that while the actor spent his lifetime attending other people's funerals, he became the one being mourned. He stated that he received the news of his aunt's death while he was at his office. The development emotionally shook him as he remembered how the deceased helped his own family.
He said:
"Yesterday was Alex Ekubo's Service of Songs, and honestly, it hit hard.
What surprised me was discovering that he had a wife and child. Many people didn't even know this, then I saw several posts claiming he died without a wife or kids. I guess some people will have to bury their assumptions in shame now. But that's not even why I'm writing this.
Death is a journey every one of us must take someday. When Alex was alive, he attended other people's funerals and Services of Songs. He watched people being laid to rest, comforted grieving families, and paid his last respects. Today, he is the one being mourned. That is the reality of life.
Yesterday, while I was at the office, I received a call that one of my aunts had passed away. I was emotionally shaken. The first thing that came to my mind was her children and the husband she left behind.
This particular aunt attended my mother's burial and helped ensure everything went smoothly. She stood with us during one of the most difficult moments of our lives. Now, preparations will soon begin for her own burial. Life has a way of reminding us that nobody is here forever."
