The administration of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) has announced that one of its students, Mrs. Henrietta Ntiako-Antwi, has passed away.

The third-year Doctor of Pharmacy student passed away during labour.

On the school's official social media account, the news was shared along with a tribute and message of sympathy for the deceased family.

The report states that Mrs. Ntiako-Antwi unfortunately passed away after delivering birth as a result of complications.

However, the infant lived.

Students and other sympathisers have used social media to express their sorrow for their colleague, who they have described as friendly and modest.

Her passing occurs one month after second-year student Lambert Frimpong was fatally stabbed over a dispute over a t-shirt.

Another third-year student studying Real Estate Management was discovered dead in her dorm.
