A final-year student at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) has tragically passed away just a day after completing his final exams.
Patrick Mensah was pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Agricultural Biotechnology.
According to his uncle, Patrick returned home on Monday evening, relieved and excited after writing his last paper.
The following day, he visited a friend at a galamsey site in Manso.
While there, he attempted to help rescue a man who had fallen into a pit but ended up falling into it.
Patrick’s sudden death has left his family, friends, and the KNUST community in shock, as they mourn the loss of a young life that had just reached a significant milestone.
