Anwuli Ekubo, the widow of the late Nollywood actor and model Alexx Ekubo, is at the center of emotional conversations across national entertainment timelines following her first poignant public appearance since her husband's tragic demise.
The topic is trending intensely because the Nigerian entertainment community, prominent political figures, and top-tier religious leaders gathered in their numbers for an all-white Service of Songs honoring the late actor at The Monarch Event Centre in Lekki, Lagos.
Alexx Ekubo sadly passed away on May 11, 2026, at the young age of 40 following a courageous battle with advanced metastatic kidney cancer. The service officially marked the commencement of his burial rites, which will culminate in his interment in Abia State on June 18.

Anwuli’s rare, heartbreaking appearance at the Lagos ceremony drew immense public empathy and emotional support. Clerics, including Pastor Ituah Ighodalo and Pastor Jerry Eze, anchored the highly spiritual evening by leading specific prayers of comfort and fortitude for the young widow.
Meanwhile, top celebrities like Nancy Isime, Ini Edo, and his best friend IK Ogbonna—who delivered a tearful tribute confessing that he still instinctively tries to call the late actor's phone—offered close comfort to Anwuli during the event, making her a focal point of nationwide condolences.
