Woman gives birth at a polling station in Kenya, names her baby girl 'Ballot'

Yesterday 8th August, a Kenyan woman who goes by the name Paulina Chemanang  gave birth to a baby girl while waiting to cast her vote in Kenya's election.

Before being rushed to a nearby dispensary, she was helped to deliver the baby by other voters at Konyao Secondary School in West Pokot.

Surprisingly, she returned to vote and was interviewed by Kenya's Capital FM where she said, 'having given birth at a polling station is a blessing to me and I thank God'.

She has since named her baby Chepkura. "Kura" means ballot or vote in Swahili.
