Tragedy hit the St. James Seminary\/Senior High School at Abesim, near Sunyani when lightening killed two final year students during a heavy downpour on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n
Five other final year students, who were with the deceased on
their way to their dormitories after night studies, sustained injuries
and were treated and discharged at the Regional Hospital in Sunyani.
The dead were Isaac Osei Kuffour and Shadrach Adofo, both 19, and
Business students.<\/p>\n
The injured were Vincent Botwe, Benjamin Ankamah Gyau, Rowland
Boadi Gyan, Ernest Baah and Goodenough Agyapong. Rev Father Hubert Asante-Kumi, the Vice Rector of the school, told the Ghana News Agency that the incident occurred at about 2030 hours in front of the school\u2019s main chapel.<\/p>\n
He said because of the tragedy the students had been asked to go
on mid-term holiday and report on Wednesday June 29. When the GNA went to the campus on Wednesday at 0730 hours, virtually all the students and staff were sad and depressed as most of
them shed tears.<\/p>\n
Consequently none of the students even entered the dining hall to
take breakfast.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
