University Student Hangs Himself After Failing 3 Papers In Exams [PHOTO]

A first year student of the University of
Education Winneba, has committed
suicide after his name was published on
the notice board as having failed in three
subjects.The student, name withheld for
now, is said to have failed in three
subjects and was due to be withdrawn.
The reason for the suicide is not yet know
but it is believed that it was because of
his pending dismissal from the
school.Wilson Dabuo, president of the
Students Representative Council of the
University of Education, Winneba,
explained to Joy News it is the policy of
the school to expel students who fail in
three subjects.
“If you trail in three subjects you would
be advised to go home; two subjects you
would be put on probation.”
He suspected that the student was
pushed to commit suicide “out of
pressure”.The Winneba District Crime
Officer, ASP Kofi Sarkodie has confirmed
the incident to Joy FM but says
investigation is ongoing to get the full
details.
He said they were informed around
2:30am by one Richard Adongo, a retired
security officer, that someone has hanged
himself in an uncompleted building.
ASP Sarkodie said they moved to the
scene and discovered the body hanging in
a room on the first floor with the “tongue
protruding a little bit from the mouth”.
