According to the Guardian, the head of the family, Mr Goodie Ibru, confirmed her passing away via a telephone call. He implored friends and associates to pray for the Ibru family at this low moment.
The Ibru family was hit by the demise of Grace after barely recovering from the death of their patriarch and head of the Ibru Organisation, one of the largest conglomerates in Nigeria, Olorogun Michael Ibru on September 6, 2016; and Senator Felix Ibru, the first democratically elected governor of Delta State, who at different times was also a Senator and President General of the Urhobo Progressive Union (UPU).
