Maternal Mortality was discussed in this study with associated obstetric risk factors in order to examine its perceived determinants and contribution of mortality rate was calculated as 381 deaths/100 000 live births. Simple descriptive analysis, Chi-square Independent test and spatial analysis were applied on 6-year study from which 33 615 deliveries resulting in 128 perinatal deaths. The maternal fetal death, Antepartum Haemorrhage and Eclampsia were found to significantly causing 13.7%, 12.9% and 12.9% maternal deaths, respectively. For every unit increase in the mother’s age, the risk of being involved in maternal deaths increases with caesarean section as the leading risk factor. The Mother and Child Hospitals have helped in reducing the Maternal Mortality by about 51% in the state from 745 per 100 000 live births in 2009 to 381per 100 000 live births in 2016
