Two Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST)students have passed away.
According to reports from the KNUST Gazette, a third-year Forest Resource Technology student Akosuah Owusuaa has passed away Today.
The cause of her death is currently unknown.
According to an undisclosed source, she said she had not feeling well since Wednesday and she was sent to the house yesterday and passed out today.
The KNUST Gazette further revealed that Bertha Kookale Hammond a final-year English student at KNUST has also passed away.
Just a few weeks ago, Joana Deladem Yabani, a fourth-year Biological Sciences student was also found dead.
The late Joana’s boyfriend Daniel Tuffuor was arrested on Thursday, February 27, 2025, after Joana’s body was found on campus early that morning. The university’s security service alerted authorities, who reported the incident to the police.
It is believed that the two were in a romantic relationship at the time of Joana’s death. Tuffuor appeared before the Prempeh District Court, where prosecutors requested his remand to facilitate further investigations into the matter.
Meanwhile, Albert Nat Hyde commonly known as Bongo Ideas has stated the number of deaths recorded yearly at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) looks like a yearly sacrifice.
According to Bongo Ideas, the KNUST needs spiritual cleansing and fortification.
Bongo Ideas took to his social media page on X and detailed the number of student deaths in the past years from 2021 to 2024.
He claimed that in 2021 23 students died, 2022 26 students died, 2023 19 students died and this year 2024 19 students have died so far.
He added that the likely cause of death is a car accident with the victims in their final year, with the female students of KNUTS dying more.
Meanwhile, some months ago KNUST lost yet another student, following the untimely death of a student, Afia Dedaa Osae-Atuah.
The victim, a third-year Geography student, was on her way to repair her laptop when a trotro vehicle veered off its lane and struck her while standing on the shoulder of the road.
