Jennifer Anguko (died 2010) was an Ugandan district councillor whose death led to a lawsuit that determined that the Ugandan governor had to prioritize maternal health.

Biography[edit]

On December 10, 2010, Anguko arrived at the Arua Regional Referral Hospital due to her pregnancy. However, none of the health workers attended to her,[1] with only a midwife being present at the time.[2] After fifteen hours of obstructed labor, she died due to a ruptured uterus.[3]
