A Kenyan woman contractor, Beatrice Njeri, has died from a medical condition reportedly linked to depression, after Nairobi City County Government allegedly failed to pay her KSh36,787,221 for a completed road project.

Beatrice Njeri was owed KSh36,787,221 by Nairobi City County Government for a completed 2.7-kilometre road project in Ruai.
The family of Njeri attributes her death to depression caused by financial strain from unpaid dues and mounting bank loan defaults.
Her family is now facing a medical bill of KSh3.2 million at Kenyatta University Teaching, Referral and Research Hospital and is appealing to Governor Johnson Sakaja for intervention.
