The last conversation between the late 18-year-old final year student at O’Reilly Senior High School, Edward Sackey, and his father Enoch Sackey has emerged.
In an interview with Onua FM, his father shared that he had significant plans for the deceased upon completing high school.
According to him, he loved his son and had his best interest at heart, noting ” I told him to excel in his papers because I have a surprise for him”.
Edward Sackey was stabbed by a colleague following a heated argument on campus debating about their fathers’ wealth.
The debate which started on a sober note turned violent, in a video gone viral , 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 is yet to address the incident.
