A 28-year-old final-year student of the Sunyani Nursing and Midwifery Training College, Gifty Kyere, has reportedly died in her boyfriend’s room at Jinijini in the Berekum area of the Bono Region.
The incident, which occurred under mysterious circumstances, has left her family in shock.
Her father, Pastor Kyere Jonathan, a senior pastor at the Agape Evangelical Church in Jinijini, disclosed that Gifty had left home just a day earlier after collecting her school fees and other items. He expressed disbelief that she ended up at her boyfriend’s residence instead.
The 23-year-old boyfriend, identified as Edmond Ayomah, is currently on the run but is said to have contacted some individuals, expressing his willingness to turn himself in.
Initial accounts suggest he told them that Gifty had suffered an asthma attack and that he lacked the funds to take her to the hospital. However, that claim has reportedly been refuted during preliminary investigations.
Sources close to the case indicate the suspect he had pressured Gifty to terminate a pregnancy, a development believed to have contributed to her death.
Police investigations are ongoing.
