Chioma Ekubo Posts Emotional Video From Late Actor's Home
Alexx Ekubo's elder sister, Chioma, has ignited a heated online debate after sharing a video of herself seated on the late actor's chair at his residence. The video, posted on Instagram on Sunday, July 12, 2026, shows Chioma sitting in the chair with a large portrait painting of Alexx hanging on the wall behind her, alongside award items on shelves. In the caption, she wrote, "Agu Nnaya, it's been 2 Months of your exit from this sinful world and this seat of yours keeps rocking without you on it, I don't even fit in, I don't intend to either cause these shoes are too large you left behind. I would live all my life filled with your memories with each passing day. The only Peace I have is knowing you are in a better place void of pains and sorrows."
Fans Question Timing and Authenticity of the Post
The video drew immediate criticism from followers who questioned why Chioma was sharing such content only after Alexx's burial rather than while he was alive. User @moyoshungu commented, "This was 3 years ago...when was the last time you were invited to his home..he changed that big pic over 2 yrs ago...seems you two were not close..the two siblings were at his house all the time." Another user, @qmarshals, asked, "I wonder why she didnt post all this she is posting b4 d burial....." User @badg.eh added, "Hmmm, you never sat on that sit while he lived? Last night I cried to sleep after watching him with ik his blood while you're already on lashes and makeup,it's well."
Family Dynamics and Grief in the Public Eye
The comments suggest that some fans believe Chioma and Alexx may not have been particularly close in the final years of his life, with one user specifically noting that two other siblings were reportedly more frequently present at his house. Alexx Ekubo passed away after a battle with cancer, leaving behind a wave of tributes from colleagues, friends, and family across Nigeria and beyond. His wife, Anwuli, also penned a touching tribute in his funeral programme pamphlet, noting that he stood by her during her mother's death and often expressed his love through handwritten notes left around their home.
