Sultana actress Winnie Ndubi Bwire has passed on.
Her death was announced by the family on Thursday morning.
The actress succumbed as she underwent cancer treatment in Turkey.
“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,” the family said in a statement.
The family thanked all who supported the actress, as she battled the killer disease.
It said more details will be issued later on.
“We thank you all for your overwhelming support, prayers and generous giving during her treatment. We will share more details in due course.”
Her death comes barely a month after she appealed for financial assistance to continue with her cancer treatment.
Ndubi was seeking Sh5 million to cover the costs of her treatment, including accommodation and meals during her stay.
In her last video appealing for help, which was shared on her social media pages on August 14, the actress explained that she was doing well with her medication until she began experiencing side effects.
