SSA To The Delta State Governor On Media Success Ovie Ossai Drags Omoni OboliFor Using Alexx Ekubo’s Burial To Promote Her Movie

I’m disappointed in Omoni Oboli for using Alexx Ekubo’s burial to promote her movie and to cash out

I just watched her video where she announced she’ll be releasing The First Lady, a film she said started their friendship 11–12 years ago.

Using someone’s death as PR to gain subscribers is disturbing and to cash out under the pretentious “All Proceed from the movie goes to the family of Late Alex Ekubo.” or to keep his memories alive is disappointing.

Watch out for more people on this pedestrian.

I know the “proceeds donation” line will distract people from the real intent, but it’s clear this is a way of leveraging people’s emotions to subtly promote her YouTube channel.

Grief is not content.

A funeral is not a launch event.

Alexx Ekubo deserves to be remembered for his life, his work, and his impact not repackaged as a trailer for a movie.

If the goal was truly to honor him, the announcement could wait.

We have to start calling this out, tragedy should not be a content calendar event.

Let’s protect the dignity of the dead, and stop monetizing people’s pain.

I am disappointed
