Our ‘suicide student’ Enoch Akandor was academically good — UDS authorities disclose

late Enoch Akonor

Authorities of the Wa Campus of the University for Development Studies (UDS), have disclosed  that Enoch Akondor, the final year BSc Development Planning student of the Wa Campus of the University for Development Studies (UDS) who committed suicide on Saturday night was academically very good.

Checks reveal that his Cumulative Grade Point Average (CPGA) was 3.32 as of second trimester 2017/2018 even before the release of results for this trimester.

It is therefore not possible that he could have taken his own life because of poor academic work as earlier reported but there are indications he had a strained relationship with someone which is yet to be unraveled.

The deceased prior to the incident,  on Saturday night sent a suicide note to his mother in Takoradi and girlfriend.

Details of what the suicide note contains remain sketchy but his last Whatsapp status updated at 7:52 pm reads “Sorry Mama I failed you”.

Sources close to the deceased revealed that per the suicide note, he apologised to both the mother and girlfriend for his decision and prayed they will forgive him for taking his own life.

It is gathered that Campus Counsellor and the Vice Dean of Students are liaising with the police to unravel the cause of the death which has left colleague of the deceased especially hostel mates in shock.
