Ex-Nigerian Senator Loses Wife to Cancer

A former Nigerian Senator that represented Bayelsa East Senatorial District, Ben Murray-Bruce, has announced the death of his wife, Evelyn Murray-Bruce.

Murray-Bruce took to his verified Twitter page in the early hours on Friday to make the announcement. He described his late wife as a friend for 43 years and wife for 41 years.

“I’m broken. Just lost my beautiful wife to cancer. She was my best friend for 43 years and my wife for 41 years. Cancer is real, but it shouldn’t be a death sentence awareness, and early detection and treatment are key to survival. I miss her so so much. I’m broken.

“Our children are devastated, I am too. But I have to be strong for them. Please put our family in your prayers. Like the sun, my wife was a blessing and touched the lives of everyone she met. Though she’s gone, she’d remain alive in our hearts forever.

“I miss you, my sweetheart, and my most beautiful girl, Evelyn Murray-Bruce. Forever yours,” He tweeted, accompanied with beautiful pictures of him and his wife.
