Abstract: Maternal mortality in Nigeria has been one of the fundamental topics of peculiar interest to public health workers and the authorities. This difficulty is due to the alarming charge at which ladies who are pregnant or some weeks after childbirth die. These reasons are; a result of negative scientific facilities and employees and many others. The goal of this examination is to apply statistical tools to research the maternal mortality ratio. Data were sourced from General Hospital Wukari spanning a duration of 14 years. The techniques of locating the maternal mortality study were used to estimate the Maternal Mortality Rate and Ratio, to explain the fashion, and to make the forecast, the method of time series evaluation was applied. 12,459 instances concerning maternity have been considered from the facts. The consequences obtained from the analysis showed the anticipated MM Ratio to be 0.005 (that is 500) maternal deaths for every 100,000 maternal-related instances. Also, the MM Rate was positioned to be 0.009 (this is 900) maternal deaths for every 100 thousand maternal births in the populace. Also from the forecast, it was discovered that the trend for maternal mortality is lowering as determined in the study of the trend.
