Sometime back, Alex called out IK Ogbonna over his supposed fake lifestyle that cost him his visa. Alex urged his friend to be himself, whether online or offline.
In response to Alex’s rants, IK warned him not to mess with him as his day had already started on the wrong note.
In a sweet post, Alex shared some of the chats between him and IK, which started with a football comment and evolved into their normal banter. Alex shared the chats online to inquire about IK’s primary school educational proof after the latter misspelt a word.
Ogbonna responded with a funny expression, saying that Ekubo had been his worst friend ever.
