The memorial event, which took place on Wednesday, June 10, at the Monarch Event Centre, brought together family members, friends, colleagues and well-wishers who gathered to pay their final respects to the late actor.
Ekubo reportedly passed away in Lagos on May 11, 2026, following a battle with advanced metastatic kidney cancer.
However, beyond the tributes and emotional moments that characterised the occasion, attention has shifted to Jegede after a video showing her outfit at the event surfaced online.
