First born son to the late Bomet Governor Joyce Laboso has revealed that he did not know his mother was ailing from cancer for the last 27 years.

This does not come as a shock given that Joyce was a woman who did not let her ailment come between her and her goals.
 According to Brian, having spent the last few months with his mother is something he will never forget.

“I have been living in Australia for about 15 years and in December 2018 I made the decision to come back home.

What I didn’t know was that mum was sick. I thank God for spending the last seven months with mum,” he said.

Speaking after Joyce passed away Deputy President William Ruto revealed 
MANY PEOPLE DID NOT KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH JOYCE BECAUSE SHE WAS BRAVE AND DID NOT WANT ANYTHING TO COME BETWEEN HER AND HER WORK FOR THE PEOPLE OF BOMET.
Ruto went on to reveal that despite her ailment Joyce was still concerned about the people of bomet.

WHEN I CAME TO SEE JOYCE ON SUNDAY SHE ASKED ME ABOUT WHAT WAS GOING ON IN BOMET,SHE ASKED ME WHETHER SHE COULD.
