Headmistress of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology Senior High School (KNUST SHS) in the Oforikrom Municipality of the Ashanti region, Mrs Felicia Asamoah Danquah has justified reasons the school authorities

Disproving suspicions that teachers captured in a video which has since gone viral neglected the boy, a final year business student, Leonard Sam for fear of contracting COVID-19, she says the school had no option but to leave him to his fate because his parents had said they were on the way to take him away from the school.

“We called his parents and they told us that they would come and take him away; in cases like these, we do not have authority over the students so we had to wait for the parents to arrive; one of the teachers went to a pharmacy to buy him medicine for ulcer when we saw his condition was deteriorating”, she told Captain Smart in an interview on Accra-based Angel FM monitored by MyNews on Wednesday morning.

Mrs Felicia Asamoah Danquah said she couldn’t have answered for the death of the student if she had gone contrary to the wishes of the parents by taking him to a hospital for medical attention.

Students of the KNUST SHS went on rampage Tuesday evening, vandalizing some school property and a salon car belonging to the headmistress after news broke that Leonard Sam had succumbed to stomach ulcer complications at the Manhyia Hospital in the morning.

Deputy Minister for Education, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum who spoke in an interview on Kumasi-based Opemsuo Radio expressed shock at the development at the school and pledged that his outfit would get to the bottom of the matter.

Final year and second year Gold Track SHS students were asked to return to school to prepare for their exit examinations after all school sessions were suspended in march due to the spread of covid-19, with the assurance from the Ministries of Education and Health that adequate medical arrangements have been put in place in all schools to cater for eventualities.
