“This Is the Hardest Job He Has Ever Done” - Yomi Casual’s Wife Shares Emotional Story Behind Alex Ekubo’s Final Burial Suit

Grace shared a heartfelt post on social media recalling the fun conversations that usually happened between Alex and Yomi when the actor needed a new outfit. “She would say Alex would tell Yomi he was going to the office to try on his clothes and they would joke because they were close friends. Yomi had told Alex his suit was ready just days before he passed away, but she said there was no answer.

“He Had to Dress His Friend One Last Time”

The heartbreaking reality quickly became obvious when Grace's husband needed to take the completed suit to the funeral home, not to get it fitted but to dress his friend on his final journey.

She said it was the most difficult job Yomi had ever done, but he did struggle emotionally to make sure that every detail of the suit was exactly the way Alex would have wanted it. Yomi kept saying she thought Alex would have complained if it wasn’t perfect, but that’s just the type of friendship they had. She was also sure Alex would have been proud of Yomi for honouring him so well. 

Grace’s emotional tribute quickly resonated with fans, with many of them confessing they were in tears over the heartbreaking story. Social media users praised Yomi Casual for giving his longtime friend a dignified final farewell, while others reflected on the deep bond shared by Alex, Yomi, and actor IK Ogbonna, whose friendship had long been admired by fans.

Grace Makun’s emotional post offers a very personal glimpse into the pain behind Alex Ekubo’s goodbye. Beyond the elegant suit was a grieving friend carrying out one final act of love, a gesture that has touched many and serves as a poignant reminder of the strength of true friendship, even in the face of loss.
