KNUST student didn’t fail her exams – PRO
Authorities of the Kwame Nkrumah University of
Science and Technology (KNUST) have dispelled
reports that an 18 year old first year student of
the school committed suicide because she trailed
some papers.

Earlier reports suggested that the daughter of New
Patriotic Party Member of Parliament for the
Asante Akyem Central constituency, Kwame
Anyimadu-Antwi, Adwoa Anyimadu-Antwi committed the
act due to poor academic performance.

Although school is yet to come out with an
official statement on the matter, its Public
Relations Officer (PRO), Kwame Yeboah said such
claims are false.

He further rubbished allegations that the
deceased took her own life because she was jilted
by her ex-lover.

“The issue has even changed to the fact that her
boyfriend jilted her. All those information are
not the fact and are false. So tomorrow the
university will issue a statement [on the matter].
One thing we must also take note of is that the
lady died and the circumstances we are not aware
of. She was taken to the hospital and she was
declared dead on arrival, so the coroner’s
report will be needed to determine the cause of
the death. So let us wait till that is out.”

He further urged the media to be circumspect in
the information they put across.

“I will plead that the media houses should just
take their time for us to dive into what really
created the problem we have on our hands now. The
reports are not yet out and the police are also
conducting their own investigations so we have to
wait for the findings of the investigation,” he
added.
