Ben Cyco's family is in mourning following the loss of his sister Joy Wairuri, who had been battling Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) for a while.
As of February this year, Ben Cyco had been using his influence to raise money for Joy's recovery processes, and he had been getting support on social media.
Before her passing, fans, CITAM Valley Road Church, and City Lighters Church came together to fundraise for Joy to undergo a Bone Marrow Transplant.
On a WhatsApp group, a source revealed the sad news, asking members to pray for the family.
"We have some sad news today. After battling with cancer for a while, Joy (Ben Cyco’s sister) went to be with the Lord at midday today. Keep the family in your prayers. God bless you, stay safe." - Source revealed
Ben Cyco had previously shaved his hair in solidarity with his sister, who had lost all her hair during chemotherapy sessions in India. Fortunately, the chemo was successful, but unfortunately, the disease returned, and Joy needed a Bone Marrow Transplant, which is a costly treatment.
From Kiss100, we send our condolences to Ben Cyco and his family and pray that God comfort them.
