A brilliant young lady, Jessica Enam Seshie, who completed her secondary education in 2024 with an outstanding score of 7As in the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) has secured admission to the University of Cape Coast (UCC).
However, she faces the heartbreaking possibility of losing her slot due to financial constraints. The determined student is expected to pay GHc4,800 for hostel accommodation but has been unable to raise the funds.

Her financial struggles stem from the loss of her father and the prolonged illness of her mother. For the past seven years, her mother has battled a severe health condition, leaving her paralysed until recently. Although she has begun to recover, she's struggling to make ends meet.
Faced with these dire circumstances, the young lady and her family have made a public appeal for financial assistance to secure her education at UCC.
She remains hopeful that the generosity of well-meaning individuals and organisations will help her achieve her academic dreams, especially at UCC.

My daughter needs help
In an exclusive interview with YEN.com.gh, Jessica's mother opened up about her situation. She said despite being happy about her daughter's academic achievements and good grades after WAEC released her results, she fears she might not go to school due to her situation.
"I'm a single mother who has singlehandedly taken care of three kids after their dad passed away. It hasn't been easy. I have laboured to take care of them and I managed to see Jessica through Senior High School and others but now, I can't raise the money the school is taking so I plead with everyone to support.
"Jessica wants to be a great person and I believe that if we help her make this dream a reality, she would be very useful to society," she added."
Young man begs for support
Similarly, YEN.com.gh reported that a young Ghanaian man, Ibrahim Sagoe, was seeking financial support to attend school.
The young man publicly appealed for financial support to ensure his slot at the institution was not revoked.
Speaking exclusively to YEN.com.gh, Ibrahim indicated that he wrote his WASSCE two years ago. After the West African Examination Council (WAEC) released his results, he realised he had scored a good grade that could gain him school admission but couldn't go to school due to financial difficulties.
