A lady has taken to social media to mourn the death of Nollywood actor Alexx Ekubo following the announcement of his passing, which triggered emotional reactions online.
Although earlier reports claimed the actor died from liver cancer, his family later clarified that he battled metastatic kidney cancer.
Lady Says Actor Led Her to Christ
The lady, identified on Instagram as @brihanna.k, shared an emotional tribute detailing how meeting Alexx Ekubo changed her life.
According to her, the actor played a major role in her spiritual journey and personal growth.
She also reflected on their last meeting and expressed regret over distancing herself from him.
In her words:
“My dearest, Alexx, it’s hard to believe that you’re no longer here. I’m trying to make peace with knowing that God made you an offer you couldn’t refuse: He prepared a place for you in Heaven that is far better than anything you would’ve experienced on earth.
“Thank you for all the memories, all the laughs, for always being a listening ear. You were present for some of the most instrumental moments in my life: my staying in school, to committing my life to Christ. When I met you, I was nothing but a struggling undergraduate. You encouraged me, prayed for me and ultimately made me give my life to Christ.
“A huge portion of who I am today is because of you. Through the good and bad, you were always there, and never judged me. I’m sorry I could not return that favour; instead, I kept my distance, often wondering if I had offended you.
“I let my pride hinder me from reminding you how much I cared and appreciated your existence. Please forgive me, I’m deeply sorry. You didn’t know anger, so I’m sure you’re probably saying, ‘It’s all good Sybrena’ as you always would, but I know say I never try at all.
“I’m grateful I got to experience who you truly were: A man of God, a listener, an advisor, a comforter. If I knew the last time I hugged you would’ve been the last, I wouldn’t have let you go. Sleep in perfect peace, Alexx. You will always have a place in my heart.”
