The president of the Students’ Representative Council (SRC) of the University of Cape Coast (UCC), Samuel Kwabena Adotei, has dismissed reports suggesting a female student of the university has been stabbed to death.
Talking to the sit-in host of The Asaase Breakfast Show, Benjamin Offei-Addo on Friday (30 September), Adotei said: “Yesterday, when the video circulated about someone who was stabbed to death, I must say that particular video of someone being stabbed to death is false.”
“I must say that in the couple of weeks, we have had attacks on students… and there have been incidents where there have been assaults and some of the students have been attacked with knives and others also badly wounded.”
Adotei added: “These are facts that I don’t want us to lose sight of, but in the pool of these, there has also been measures in place to deal with security.”
The student leader said measures have been put in place to address the security challenges on campus.
“The office of the dean of students instituted a 55-member community watchdog, which started work on Monday, and I must say for the whole of this week we have not had any incident of attack,” Adotei said.
He said one person has so far been arrested in connection with the incessant attacks on campus.
