Woman's Message to Alexx Ekubo
She wrote: 'Hmmmm..., I had a dream early last year about this actor. When I woke up, his thoughts became heavy on my mind and refused to go away. I don't know him personally, so I checked his Instagram and saw it had been a while since he posted. I hoped he was okay, but his thoughts kept tugging at my heart.'
She continued: 'I talked to my husband about it so much that he said, "Why don't you drop a message for him? It doesn't matter if he responds or not, just do it." So I sent him a DM, something I had never done before. When I saw the news of his passing yesterday, my heart missed several beats. It's really sad. May God comfort all he left behind.'

Social media users reacted to the woman's story. Emmanuel Enemchukwu commented: 'Celebrities come to your mind, who knows me?' Chinonyerem Nwachukwu Gift-Michael said: 'The same happened to me, but I procrastinated reaching out to the woman. She passed on Friday. I feel so sad.'
