A Nigerian lady has openly questioned the decision of late Nollywood actor Alexx Ekubo to keep his marriage completely hidden from the public until after his death.
The marriage became public knowledge when the actor's wife, Anwuli Amakom, attended his service of songs event. The service took place on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, following his passing from metastatic kidney cancer.

"ALEX EKUBO AND WIFE'S SECRET LIFE Why would you keep your marriage secret only to make it public after the demise of your spouse? No news of traditional marriage, no news of church wedding, no news of pregnancy, baby birth and naming ceremony. This is the world's most private couple, nobody will tell me otherwise. What's the rationale behind the secrecy? Make it make sense to me please."
