Willis Raburu’s wife opens up after losing their child


Marya Prude, the wife of Citizen TV presenter, Willis Raburu has spoken out for the first time since the tragic loss of her child.

Marya penned an emotional post on her social media platforms lamenting on how what she went through has changed her relationship with God.

She says the ordeal tested every way she knew Him (God) and the time when she needed him the most, but He did not prove Himself to her.

“Everyone is so quick to tell me about God, what they don’t know is that every way I knew Him was tested and He didn’t prove Himself. So as they say you should know God for yourself. I know can say I don’t know Him. And I don’t think I want to know Him coz He left me when I needed him the most,” wrote Marya Prude.

Marya, who had been pregnant, lost the baby in a stillbirth.

The pain of the loss of their child was too great for the couple, resulting to Raburu taking a break from work and his duties at Citizen TV.

Raburu said that he could not deal with the pain alone and that he needed a break to allow his wife and him “get through the motions”.

Raburu and Marya got married in 2017 at a private wedding that was only attended by close friends and family.
