Until former Senator representing Bayelsa East Senatorial District, Ben Murray-Bruce, announced on Friday that he had lost his wife, Evelyn, to cancer, no one would have thought he had such a battle.

The news hit the entire country like a storm. To many, the media mogul was living his best life and has little or no worries.

The Chairman of Silverbird Group is vibrant, he has a beautiful family, looks dashing at all times and is a successful entrepreneur.

On Twitter, he wrote: “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 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.”

The Silverbird Group supremo, Ben Murray-Bruce shared photos of himself, his wife plus his immediate family which captured beautiful memories they both had. He stated that she will remain alive in his heart forever.

Ben Murray-Bruce, represented Bayelsa State as senator but withdrawn his participation in the senatorial primaries of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) after his first tenure.

Mr Murray-Bruce said in a letter to party leaders that he was constrained by a zoning arrangement in his locality, which rotates senatorial seat by local government area at every election cycle.

“I do not want whatever reason to appear to have used my privileged position and influence to do anything that other than the well-being and the stability and the good of the people,” Mr Murray-Bruce said
