The pain keeps coming. Another Nollywood actor, Godwin Nnadiekwe, has opened up about the death of his colleague Alex Ekubo. And his revelation is heartbreaking. π
According to Godwin, Alex seemed to know how serious his condition was. Before he passed away on May 11, 2026, after a battle with cancer at age 41, Alex had already prepared his will. Yes. His will. π
“I’m struggling to find the words. This news has truly broken me. Nollywood has lost a rare soul, and I’m at a loss for words because this wasn’t the plan,” Godwin wrote.
Then he dropped the heavy line: “Alex Ekubo, to think you already prepared your will. It’s a heartbreak I can’t quite describe. Rest well, my friend.”
He ended with a painful shout: “Goodnight Alex. Cancer, you did this one.” π’
The internet is now reacting with even more sadness. One person wrote: “He knew. That is why he was taking time off. That is why he looked sad in that video. He knew.” π
Another said: “Preparing a will at 41 shows he had accepted his fate. That takes courage.”
A third added: “This is so painful. Cancer is a beast. RIP Alex.”
Godwin’s tribute adds another layer to the tragedy. Alex wasn’t just sick β he was preparing to leave. And now he is gone.
Rest in peace, Alex Ekubo. ποΈπ
