IK Ogbonna has shared a touching tribute to his late friend Alexx Ekubo, who passed away on May 11. The actor's heartfelt message highlights their close bond and the profound impact Ekubo had on his life.

Actor IK Ogbonna has opened up for the first time about the painful loss of his longtime friend, Alexx.
Reflecting on the tragedy, IK said the past few months have changed the way he views life and loss.
According to him, people often see ambulances speeding by, say a quick prayer or offer condolences, then move on with their day because they assume the person inside is someone else's loved one.
He noted that many people live as though there will always be another birthday, another Christmas, another trip, another conversation, or another opportunity to say, "I'll see you next week."
