Popular Sultana actress Bwire Ndubi is dead.
Ndubi died today (Thursday) morning at Maslak Acibadem hospital in Turkey where she was receiving cancer treatment.
"It is with a heavy heart and humble acceptance of God's will that we announce Winfred Bwire Ndubi lost her battle to cancer on 5th September 2024 while undergoing treatment in Turkey," reads a statement from family.
The late Ndubi had travelled back to Turkey for treatment last week after developing some complications from her previous treatment.
In her last video appealing for help, which was shared on her social media pages on August 14, the actress revealed she was experiencing some side effects from her treatment.
"You wouldn't believe it—it has over 41 side effects, and you never know which one will hit. You experience some of them at different times, and it keeps changing," she narrated.
Friends and relatives held a fundraiser in Mombasa to raise the ksh 5 million needed for her to get back to Turkey for further treatment.
Ndubi who played 'Dida' in Sultana shared her struggle with breast cancer with fans in 2022.
