He noted on X that:

"Aw! This is Patience Quansah. She completed APGSS, O'Level, in 1994 not '92. Part of the last batch of O'level graduates. As an Old Saint, year mate and Sekondi/Taadi person, her story is not news though a very sad one. If this is an intervention I'm afraid its decades late. Sad!"
"Barely 6 months after our O'Level graduation She found herself in this unfortunate situation. This past June was 30 years since we left secondary school. Her story was in many conversations during our (APPSAINT '94) anniversary dinner. As to the cause, u can imagine the stories."
