A Nigerian man has shared his personal encounter with the late Nollywood actor Alexx Ekubo following the heartbreaking news of his passing.
According to him, he met Alexx Ekubo for the first and only time at the Qatar airport, where he had the opportunity to observe him briefly. He noted that the encounter left a strong impression on him, as the actor came across as warm and approachable.
He further expressed his surprise at Alexx Ekubo’s physical appearance in real life, stating that the actor looked even more striking in person than he did on screen. In his words, the experience reinforced the admiration he already had for him as a public figure.
He also recalled working on a film project last year, explaining that while editing the production, he developed a sense that the actor was genuinely kind-hearted.
This perception was formed after observing how Alexx Ekubo interacted with everyone on set before filming started.
According to Signor_martini on X, the actor’s behavior toward the crew and others present gave him a clear impression of Ekubo’s warm and respectful character.
He wrote: Only time I ever saw Alexx in real life was at Qatar airport. I remember telling myself this bro actually looks really good in real life, even better than how good he looks in films. Edited a film last year and I could tell he’s a really nice guy from his interaction with everyone on set before director called “action”.
