Published on August 2, 2019, the untimely passing of Bomet Governor Joyce Laboso left many in shock. Her son, Brian, has now revealed a heartbreaking truth about his mother's final days.
According to Brian, he had been living in Australia for about 15 years before deciding to return home in December 2018. What he didn't know was that his mother was battling cancer for the last 27 years.
Speaking about his time with his mother, Brian said, "I thank God for spending the last seven months with mum." This poignant statement highlights the close bond the two shared during her final days.
Deputy President William Ruto paid tribute to Joyce Laboso, describing her as a brave woman who didn't let her illness get in the way of her work for the people of Bomet. He recalled a conversation with her on Sunday, where she asked about the situation in Bomet and expressed her desire to help.
Edwin, Joyce's husband, has been a pillar of strength throughout her illness, always by her side. Brian's confession serves as a testament to the love and resilience that defined Joyce Laboso's life.
