A video showing the emotional moment reality TV star, Alex Asogwa better known as Alex Unusual, playfully tackled her late co-reality star and friend, Rico Swavey, has been shared online.
Recall that a night of tribute and service of songs was held in Lagos on Wednesday night, October 19, in honour of the 29-year-old BBNaija star who passed away last week after a tragic accident.
Several BBNaija stars attended the candle night event, including his close friend, Alex Unusual. It’s worthy to note that it was Alex who announced news of Rico’s accident on social media and called for prayers for him while he was fighting for his life at the hospital.
When she was signing the condolence register at his service of songs, a picture frame/obituary of the deceased star suddenly fell on her head.
Reacting to this, Alex nervously tackled Rico for always beating her, howbeit playfully, at every slightest opportunity he gets and even doing it again at his night of tribute.
The grieving BBNaija star who ascribed a significance to the incident, said “Rico why? Must you always hit me?”
The heartbreaking video has sparked different reactions on social media as netizens share their thoughts on the incident.
