Sick student dies in dormitory after being denied exeat

A second-year male student of the Dwamena Akenteng Senior High in the Ashanti region has died in his dormitory at the school after he was reportedly denied exeat to go home for treatment.

The family of the General Arts student is accusing the headmaster of the school for refusing him the right to seek medical attention Sunday even when his health condition had visibly deteriorated.

Some students who confirmed the incident to SilverFM's Akwadaa Nyame said their colleague was found dead in the dormitory after school hours.

The lifeless body of the student had since been rushed to the St. Patrick’s hospital by some of the teachers where the death was confirmed, silveronline24 understands.

The school authorities are yet to comment on the matter.

SilverNEWS reporter Akwadaa Nyame has been on the campus to fish for more information from the colleagues of the bereaved.
