Ify Ekubo, the sister-in-law of Alexx Ekubo, has shared why she feels upset with the late movie star following his passing.

Recall that the actor reportedly died on Monday, May 11, at a Lagos hospital after battling complications linked to kidney cancer.

In her tribute, Ify admitted she was struggling to come to terms with the actor’s death.

Rather than only mourn him quietly, she emotionally questioned why he left without saying goodbye to the people who loved him deeply.

According to her, the actor had promised to return her call after they spoke shortly before his birthday.

Sadly, that conversation became their last. She wrote:

“Ikebobo m!!!! Chaiii!!! Words fail me!!! You didn’t do well this time around. I hope you’re seeing this message. Look how the world is hurting. You left without saying goodbye.”

Ify further revealed that they still had plans together for June in Houston before his sudden death changed everything.

The grieving family member admitted she still had many things left unsaid and unfinished with the actor.

“We had a lot to finish up!! Plans for June in Houston! Ikebobo, you did this to me! I am upset! I am not happy, Ikenna! You told me you would call me back after our phone conversation before your birthday. So that was it?!” she said.

Ify also described the late actor as a strong presence in her children’s lives.

According to her, Alexx was not just an uncle but a mentor and elder brother figure to them.

“You were a mentor to my children and their elder brother. They miss you! They miss their uncle. This is not fair!” she added.
