A final-year student of Wa T.I Ahmadiyya Senior High School (Wa AMASS) is in critical condition after being stabbed during a confrontation on campus Tuesday night.
The incident reportedly occurred between two final-year students Iddrisu Ibrahim, popularly known as “Lincoln,” and Hafis, also known as “Baayaawa” following a heated dispute over a video recording.
According to eyewitnesses, Lincoln had recorded a video of Hafis without his consent. When Hafis demanded the video be deleted, Lincoln allegedly refused, despite threats involving a knife.
The situation escalated when Hafis reportedly pulled out the weapon and stabbed Lincoln in the rib and abdomen.
Following the attack, Hafis attempted to flee but was apprehended by police, who intervened to prevent further escalation. Lincoln, despite his injuries, managed to stagger to the school library before collapsing.
He was rushed to the Wa Regional Hospital, where his condition is currently described as critical but stable.
A female eyewitness recounted the traumatic scene: “When Lincoln came out, the knife was still stuck in him. Some students removed it before rushing him to the hospital.”
School authorities have since tightened security on campus, and police investigations are underway. The incident has sparked renewed concerns about student safety and the presence of weapons in schools.
