How an argument over whose father was richer led to the death of an O’Reilly SHS final-year student

A dispute between two students at O’Reilly Senior High School about their fathers' wealth turned violent when a final-year student was stabbed during a heated argument on campus.

In a video seen by GhanaWeb, a cousin of the deceased student, identified as Edward, told TV3 that he was a general arts student at the school.

After completing a morning exam, they heard a commotion on the school grounds and rushed to find Edward in a physical altercation with another student named Godwin.

The situation escalated, with Edward being stabbed and sustaining serious injuries as teachers failed to intervene despite the severity of the fight.

In an attempt to save Edward's life, a group of students quickly left the school to find a taxi to take him to the hospital.

Sadly, Edward passed away shortly after arriving at the hospital. The school has not yet addressed the incident.

The school has yet to officially comment on the issue.
