Former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has visited Herbert, the KNUST student who was stabbed in Kumasi on Monday night.
Herbert, a member of the Unity Hall “jama group” at KNUST, was part of a student team providing cheer songs for an individual during the NPP’s “Thank You Tour” held in the Bantama Constituency on Tuesday.
He was stabbed after the event following a reported misunderstanding over money between the Unity Hall group and another yet-to-be-identified group.
The injured student is currently receiving treatment at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital.
Dr. Bawumia, who is continuing his thank you tour in the Ashanti Region, visited the victim on Wednesday evening at the hospital.
Accompanied by leading members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Bawumia expressed his sympathies and best wishes to the injured student.
He also donated GH¢50,000 to support Herbert’s medical expenses.
The student’s grandmother, who received the donation on his behalf, expressed gratitude to Dr. Bawumia for the kind gesture and thanked the entire delegation for their visit.
Dr. Bawumia thanked Almighty Allah for sparing the student’s life and wished him a speedy recovery.
