Abura passed on on 20th October in Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) private wing while she was under medication for depression,gastritis and kidney related complications.

Her untimely death sheds light to the painful moments of how the other celebrities and close friends had abandoned her in her time of need when she tried to raise funds for her son's,Prince treatment.

Although only a few number of celebrities attended her burial,those who attended appealed to the county and the national government to continue with what Abura was doing; nurturing and supporting young talents.

Achieng' Abura is survived by a son,Prince.

Rest in Peace Abura.
