Maternal and Child Mortality across Africa remains unacceptably high with Haemorrhage, hypertensive disorders, obstructed labour, Sepsis and unsafe abortions as the leading causes of maternal mortality. An emerging trend of pregnancy related metabolic and cardiovascular complications is on the rise and contributes significantly to Maternal Mortality. Sub-Saharan Africa remains the region with the highest neonatal mortality rate (27 deaths per 1000 live births) which is majorly accounted for by preventable causes of Birth Asphyxia (28.6%) prematurity (27.9%), Sepsis (18.2%) and congenital Anomalies (11.7%).
