Nurses Strike: Popular Actress Passes Away During Child Birth, Her Baby Dies Few Minutes Later

A popular Kenyan actress, Maureen Wanza has died while giving birth in Kilifi County, Kenya on Tuesday due to Clinical and nurses strike.

According to DailyNation, Maureen had been rushed to a private clinic after developing complications.

“It was an emergency. While at the facility, her situation worsened as she gave birth. She bled to death. Unfortunately, her baby also died minutes later,” Ashiners Films CEO Ann Hamburg said.

Her death comes at a time when hundreds of patients in the county are seeking treatment in private hospitals due to the industrial action that has paralysed services in all public hospitals.
