A final year General Arts student of the Mozano Senior High School in the Central Region Portia Donkor has met her untimely death.
The 18 year-old met her death when she got burnt in a church during prayers.
The mother of the student Efua Asantewaa had taken her to the church for prayers to aid her pass successfully the ongoing WASSCE but things went sour for the girl.
Efua Eguama, 45 ,the Prophetess and leader of the African Faith Church at Breman Bedum whose church the girl, her parent and other siblings visited is said to have poured oil on the girl in the course of the church service.
She is said to have lit a candle and gave it to the girl to hold as it forms part of the fortification process to aid her pass the WASSCE.
The cloths of the student however caught fire in the process causing her to suffer severe burns and had to be sent to the Breman Asikuma hospital as the fire could not be readily quenched and later transferred to Korle Bu Teaching hospital where she finally passed on.
The police have since arrested the said the prophetess and would be arraigned before court on Monday on the provisional charge of murder.
The Breman Asikuma District Police Commander ASP Emmanuel Donkor Baah confirmed the incident to Ultimate News’ Central regional correspondent Kwaku Baah-Acheamfour.
