A Level 200 student of the University of Cape Coast (UCC) has died after he was reportedly knocked down by a campus shuttle while attempting to retrieve his student ID card before an examination.
The deceased, Caleb Mensah, popularly known among colleagues as Paywa, was a BCom Finance student and an affiliate of Oguaa Hall.
According to accounts from fellow students, the incident occurred at the Norman Bu area on the UCC campus. Caleb had reportedly arrived at the examination hall but realised he had forgotten his student identification card, which is required before students are allowed to sit for examinations.
He was allegedly asked to return and bring the ID card before he could be permitted to write the paper.
In a rush to retrieve the card, Caleb reportedly boarded a motorbike to return to his residence or hostel. During the journey back, the motorbike was involved in a collision with a campus shuttle.
The accident reportedly caused severe injuries, and Caleb sadly died shortly after the crash.
The incident has left many students on campus in shock, with tributes pouring in from colleagues and friends who described him as lively and friendly.
