Chris Ekpenyong, the senator representing Akwa Ibom North West District, Akwa Ibom state, has lost his wife.
The senator’s wife, Grace, is said to have passed on in Uyo, last weekend.
The son, Emmanuel Ekpenyong, confirmed the incident Monday morning.
“It’s a sad reality we must have to accept,” Mr Ekpenyong said.
Mr Ekpenyong, a former deputy governor of Akwa Ibom state, won the 2019 Senate election against an incumbent senator, and former governor of State, Godswill Akpabio.
People who were close to the late Grace said she was hard-working, and a loving wife and mother to her husband and children.
She was an entrepreneur who ran a flourishing bread factory and some agro-allied businesses in Akwa Ibom state.
