BREAKING: Edna Ibru, Ex-Delta First Lady Dies In London Hospital
Mrs. Edna Ibru, the first civilian first lady of Delta State and wife of former Governor of Delta, Olorogun Felix Ibru, is dead.
Mrs. Ibru, a former Miss Nigeria in 1964, died in London after a brief illness on Wednesday.
She had two children for Olorogun Felix Ibru who was the first democratically elected executive governor of Delta State between 1991 to 1992.
The Ibru family of Agbarha-Otor Kingdom confirmed the passing of the former first lady in a statement issued by the son, Dr. Paul Aidido Ibru, on Saturday.
The deceased, who died in her 80s, was also the first Nigerian/African to represent Nigeria at Miss Universe.
Dr. Ibru in the statement said, “Our amazing mother passed into glory on Wednesday January 15, 2025 after a brief illness.”
According to him, “Until her death, she was full of life and we never expected her to leave us so soon but we cannot question the will of God in her precious life.
“She was a lover of people, a mediator, a mother to many, outrageously humorous, deeply caring, down to earth, full of stories all of the time, and we will miss her very dearly.”
He added that arrangement for her burial would be announced by the family in a later date.
