Kunle Remi Faces Backlash for Vlogging Alex Ekubo’s Funeral

Comments ranged from “very bad taste” to disbelief that a funeral could be turned into content for views. The controversy reignited wider debate about funeral decorum. Media personality Noble Igwe and OAP Daddy Freeze also weighed in, questioning the line between celebration of life and respect for the departed. Fans remain divided over the proper way to honour a colleague’s passing.
