Nancy Isime’s All-White Look at Alex Ekubo’s Service of Songs Sparks Outrage
Nollywood star Nancy Isime attended late actor Alex Ekubo’s Service of Songs in Lekki wearing a white gown and a sheer eye covering. Her striking ensemble quickly drew attention at the Monarch Event Centre. Fans on social media slammed her appearance. Many asked if it felt like a fashion show rather than a memorial service. Comments included “Does she know it’s not about her?” and “Is this a service of songs or fashion week?” Shortly after Alex’s passing, Nancy shared a heartfelt statement on cancer awareness and changed her profile photo to a tribute image. She has also faced similar criticism before, notably for her controversial outfit at last year’s Headies Awards. The debate has reignited questions about dress codes and respect at mourning events. Some defend her right to self-expression, while others urge more subdued looks for solemn occasions.
