  • Social media users who commented on the video were saddened by the tragedy that had befallen the girl

The mother of Suzzy Pinamang, the Adventist Senior High School female student, recently shot by her schoolmate was enveloped in sorrow as she opened up on the disaster that befell her daughter.

In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh on the YouTube page of DE GOD SON TV, the mother of the Form 2 student lamented that ever since the incident occurred the school officials have not visited Suzzy Pinamang to check on her well-being since she got home.

She also chided the school authorities for their negligence, wondering how a student could bring a gun to school unnoticed, let alone carry it to class.

The elderly woman called for laws to work so that justice would also be served.

"They seized my daughter's phone but allowed one student to bring a gun to school. My child is unable to sleep."

Details of Suzzy Pinamang's eye injury

Suzzy Pinamang in the interview said it all happened when her classmate brought a gun to class.

After the teacher left, she engaged in a brief conversation with some of her classmates and placed her head on the table.

While her head was on the table, Suzzy Pinamang heard the boy and his friends murmuring and debating on whether it was a real gun or not. Uninterested in their conversation, she kept her head below.

The guys eventually clogged the gun and pulled the trigger. When they did, she coincidentally raised her head and got shot.

Identify students with questionable behaviour

Speaking with YEN.com.gh, the Executive Producer of The Sharks Quiz, Abel Ohene Acquaye stressed the need for school authorities to be proactive in curbing some of these unfortunate incidents.

He stressed the need for the authorities to identify students with aggressive behaviour and know how to handle such students.

"Schools can identify students at risk of violent behavior by monitoring changes in behavior, such as increased aggression, withdrawal, or fascination with violence."
