The family of a 17-year-old second year student who was allegedly poisoned in school is demanding justice.
Boris Commodore of the Saint Stephens Presby Senior Technical School complained of stomach pains after he took milo and gari after prep. He allegedly started vomiting blood and was pronounced dead before arriving at the hospital.
Brother of the deceased Jeffery Commodore said he suspects foul play and also blames the school authorities for not acting swiftly.
“I can only be satisfied if I know the cause of my brother’s death whether it was poisoning so the Police can pick up the culprit. My brother had complained of stomach pains for close to three to four hours and then he started foaming and vomiting blood and after complaining to the hall master he told him because of the distance from the school and the hospital he had to wait till morning and the only thing he took was Milo and Gari after prep, I suspect foul play”.

HEADMASTERS AND HOUSEMASTERS MUST BE CAREFUL ABOUT HANDLING ISSUES REGARDING STUDENTS. MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE.PLEASE INSIST PROPER REPORT COMES OUT TO EXPLAIN THIS INCIDENCE.
My condolences to the bereaved family May God find a good replacement for their son. As a product of the boarding school system which has also produced many Ghanaians in higher positions in life, I think our society needs to rethink the Board School system again because of the many bad things that has been happening there. But unfortunately many in our society are not aware of this. Some of the social vices occurring in our societies may its roots cuase from the Boarding Schools. The Sad death of this young man is a clear example. My plea to the authorities of the Ministry of Education to look into this case with all its seriousness. The School authorities should have acted swiftly. The headmaster should have resigned by now. If does not happen to you it may happen to a friend. Thank you
A student is sick in the night and the only thing the house master can do is to tell the student to wait till morning. The student life may have been saved if he has been taken to the hospital in time.
MY CONDOLENCE TO THE BEREAVED FAMILY.MAY THE GOOD LORD (JESUS CHRIST)GIVES YOU ALL THE STRENGTH TO OVERCOME THIS.
Could be 3 things; (a) the milk is spoilt (b) the gari was made from ""ghost cassava", poisonous because of the high content of cyanide, or (c) someone may have poison him. The autopsy should tell what caused his death.
So Sad RIP
