A final-year student of Wa T.I Ahmadiyya Senior High School (Wa Amass) is battling for his life after being stabbed during a violent altercation with a fellow student on campus Tuesday night.
The victim, Iddrisu Ibrahim popularly known as Lincoln a Year 3 Agricultural Science student from Bulenga, was allegedly stabbed by his friend Hafis, also known as Baayaawa, a Year 3 General Arts student from Bawku.
Eyewitnesses say the confrontation began after Lincoln reportedly recorded a video of Hafis without his consent. Hafis demanded the video be deleted, but Lincoln refused. The situation escalated when Hafis allegedly threatened to stab Lincoln, who reportedly dismissed the warning and dared him to act.
In a shocking turn of events, Hafis is said to have pulled out a knife and stabbed Lincoln in the rib and stomach.
Following the incident, Hafis attempted to flee but was apprehended by police officers who quickly intervened to prevent retaliatory violence from a group of enraged students. He was taken into custody for questioning.
Despite his severe injuries, Lincoln managed to walk from the hostel area to the school library before collapsing. A female eyewitness recounted, “When Lincoln came out, the knife was still in him. Some students pulled it out before rushing him to the hospital.”
He is currently receiving treatment at the Wa Regional Hospital, where his condition is reported as critical but stable.
Police have launched an investigation into the incident. Meanwhile, school authorities are yet to release an official statement, but security on campus has been significantly tightened to maintain order and prevent any further violence.
