Don’t make it seem like a celebration – Media personality, Noble Igwe reacts as videos from actor Alexx Ekubo’s funeral surface online

Media personality Noble Igwe has shared his thoughts after videos from actor Alexx Ekubo’s funeral circulated on social media.

Alexx Ekubo, who passed away in May, was laid to rest on Thursday, June 18, in his hometown of Arochukwu, Abia State. 

The burial followed a wave of online controversy sparked by OAP, Daddy Freeze, who publicly criticized the white dress code and upbeat musical selections at the earlier Service of Songs.

Despite the critique, guests maintained the white dress code for the final burial ceremony. 

Taking to his Instagram Stories hours after the event, Noble Igwe explicitly advising attendees to avoid actions that would provide further commentary content for a certain ‘daddy.’ He also asked them not to post so many videos that would make the event look like a celebration.
