A 20-year-old final year student of the Mando Senior High School in the Ajumako Enyan Essiam district of the Central region has met his untimely death Sunday.

The student identified as Prince Sam, got drowned at the Nsaakoa Hotel at Ajumako Onwane when he attempted to cool off in the hotel’s swimming pool during a party at the hotel.

Sam is said to have gone to the said hotel with his girlfriend and other colleagues to celebrate his birth which travelled deep into the night.

Lifeguards, according to Starr News investigations, were not present through the time that the birthday party took place at the pool side.

Some people have, however, attribute his death to a ritual murder as it is alleged that in the last three years, a body is always found in the pool specifically in the month of March.

The body has however been deposited at the Breman Asikuma Hospital Morgue for autopsy.

Meanwhile, the hotel management has declined comments on the matter.
