Students of KNUST Senior High School went on a demonstration over the death of one of their colleagues on campus yesterday.
They accused school authorities of leaving the boy, who complained of stomach upset unattended to for almost three hours in the care of his colleagues due to fear of Covid-19.
Armed Policemen were later brought in to disperse the students.
Videos captured by some students show the deceased groaning in pain supported by some of his colleagues on campus.
Reports say the student died later at a health facility.
News of the death of the Business student sent the students on a rampage amid pelting of stones and breaking the windscreen of a saloon car which, the headmistress drove to the school.
According to the students, had the school’s authorities acted fast, the boy’s life would have been saved.
School authorities were not immediately available for comment.
