14-year-old girl dies after reportedly setting herself ablaze at Mpraeso Amanfrom

A tragic incident occurred at a school park in Mpraeso Amanfrom, part of the Kwahu West Municipality in Ghana's Eastern Region, where a 14-year-old Junior High School student named Keziah Mirekua lost her life after reportedly setting herself ablaze. The exact cause of this heartbreaking event remains shrouded in mystery, as conflicting statements from family members have emerged, hinting at potential underlying issues.

Keziah, who was a final-year pupil at the Mpraeso Amanfrom Basic School, reportedly suffered severe burns during the incident. Her grandmother, Christiana Nkansah, shared with Adom News that the family was told that the tragedy could be linked to allegations of pregnancy involving a young man, who allegedly denied any involvement.

Additionally, Keziah reportedly made some disclosures while receiving medical treatment at the hospital. However, both her mother and sister have strongly refuted claims that she was pregnant, stating that she was indeed involved in a relationship with a young man but was not pregnant. The two family members speculate that other factors might have played a role in the tragic incident and are demanding a comprehensive investigation to uncover the truth behind Keziah's untimely death.
