Ivory Coast is in shock after the tragic death of Rebecca Kangoute, finalist of Miss Ivory Coast 2019, who died while giving birth. A disappearance which arouses emotion and revives the debate on maternal mortality.
A rising star suddenly extinguished 🌟
Rebecca Kangoute, 26, had everything to succeed. Finalist for Miss Côte d’Ivoire in 2019, this sparkling and ambitious young woman knew how to charm the public with her grace and elegance. But it was while fulfilling the most beautiful role, that of mother, that she left us, leaving a great void in the hearts of her loved ones and her many admirers.
Too much drama 😡
How many Rebecca will still have to pay with their lives for the simple act of giving life? In Cameroon, as in many African countries, maternal mortality remains a scourge. According to the WHO, one in 39 women dies in childbirth in sub-Saharan Africa. Unacceptable figures in 2024, which demonstrate serious failures in health systems.
It’s time to act ! 🙏
The death of Rebecca Kangoute must be an electric shock. It is urgent to do everything possible to guarantee every woman a safe pregnancy and childbirth. This requires massive investments in health infrastructure, training of healthcare personnel, and raising awareness among populations. It is a question of justice and dignity.
A fight that concerns us all 💪
Faced with this tragedy, we cannot remain idle. Each at our level, we must mobilize so that never again a woman loses her life while giving birth. Let’s challenge our leaders, support associations, break taboos. For Rebecca, for all these anonymous heroines cut down too soon. Their fight is ours. Let’s not forget them.
Beauty, motherhood, tragedy… The broken destiny of Rebecca Kangoute upsets and compels us. May his sacrifice finally open the way to awareness and strong actions. This is the best tribute we can pay him.
