A Master’s student from the University of Ghana Business School (UGBS) tragically lost his life in a robbery incident on Tuesday night. The incident occurred as he was making his way back from class at approximately 9:00 pm.
The unfortunate incident took place on the UPSA-UGBS section of the Legon-Madina road, where a group of robbers was operating.
According to eyewitness accounts, the student valiantly attempted to resist the attackers, which only served to further enrage them. In their fury, the robbers forcefully pushed him onto the road, resulting in his untimely demise.
A speeding vehicle was said to have run him over, killing him instantly.
Students have been cautioned to be extra careful on that stretch, especially late at night.
News of his demise has sparked concerns among students who have lamented the poor security on the stretch.
They have taken to social media to bring to the attention of authorities the lack of street lights, traffic lights and security personnel in the area.
