Nigerian business magnate and politician, Ben Murray-Bruce, has announced the death of his mother, Madam Margaret Murray Bruce.

According to the former Senator representing Bayelsa East Senatorial District, his mother died at 4.40am on Tuesday.

The Senator made the announcement on his Twitter handle, adding that he found solace in knowing that he gave his mother all the attention he could give during her lifetime.

He also expressed pain, saying he would miss her so much.

Ben Bruce wrote, “Life. Indeed, like sand in the wind, today it’s here, tomorrow it’s gone. My mum is gone. She died at 4.40am this morning. My gem of inestimable value, my support system, my best friend, my everything—she’s gone.

“My consolation is that in her lifetime, I gave her not just everything that money could buy, but most importantly, I gave her my presence, my time, my everything.

“On uncountable occasions, I will go to her house to hug her and play with her for no reason but love, the kind that only sons share with their mums. I love you, mum, and I miss you. This one hurts so bad. Forever yours.”
