On Thursday, last week, a Kenyan woman drowned in a pool in Toronto, Canada, while live-streaming her swimming session on Facebook.
Hellen Wendy Nyabuto, a nurse in Toronto, was in a jovial mood while interacting with her followers before the tragedy occurred.
Wendy started swimming while her phone was recording. She kept diving in the pool while holding her face beneath the water for several seconds before swimming back to read the comments on the live video.
Moments later she started wailing, screaming and seeking for help in distress. She was alone in the pool and had to go through the distress much to the horror of her viewers who had joined her live stream and couldn’t do anything to help her out.
Wendy’s boyfriend has disclosed their last conversation before the tragedy struck.
Alphonce Nyamwaya had a short conversation with her before she headed into the swimming pool.
Nyamwaya said Wendy made a video call while he was preparing himself for the afternoon shift. She told him that she was headed to the swimming pool to relax after completing her morning shift.
He said "She inquired whether I had eaten before we said goodbye to each other,”
Speaking to the media, her father said that they are struggling to come to terms with the loss even as they try to figure out how to bring her body home for a proper send-off.
