She Fought Bravely to Her Last Breath – Bwire Ndubi’s Father Speaks

The body of actress Winnie Bwire Ndubi, best known for her role in the popular TV drama Sultana, arrived in Mombasa on Sunday, September 8, following her passing on September 5. Winnie, who had been undergoing treatment in Turkey, lost her battle with cancer after a long and courageous fight.

Family, friends, and fans gathered at Mombasa International Airport to receive her body, expressing deep sorrow and emphasizing the urgent need for accessible cancer care. Winnie’s father, Edmond Ndubi, spoke to the press, offering a touching tribute to his daughter.

“Winnie was very popular because of her multi-talents. She was an actress, a furniture maker, a baker, and a musician. She was an inspiration for most young people,” Edmond said with deep emotion.

Reflecting on her battle with cancer, he added, “She bravely fought cancer to her last breath. As a family, we can say it is good she has rested. For those who may not know, Winnie has suffered a lot. She was strong and put up a brave face, and people never knew what she was going through. She never cried during the tough times but suffered quite a lot.”

Edmond shared his feelings about her passing, stating, “God decided the best way was for her to rest. We thank God for having given us Winnie. She was also an inspiration to us as parents, but now that she has gone, we pray God can place her soul in eternal peace.”

Edmond’s words painted a picture of a daughter who, despite her pain, maintained a positive demeanor and inspired those around her with her strength and resilience.
