Suzzy Pinamang, a student of the Seventh-day Adventist Senior High School (SDA SHS), who was shot in the face by her schoolmate, has taken to social media to cry out for help.

This unfortunate incident has left Suzzy partially blind, causing her severe physical and psychological pain.

In a video shared on social media, the SHS student sent a passionate appeal to Ghanaians, seeking help to recover her eyesight.

She specifically mentioned Ghanaian politician Kennedy Agyapong and renowned business mogul Ibrahim Mahama, pleading with them to come to her aid.

"Honourable Kennedy Agyapong and Ibrahim Mahama, I beg you in the name of God, please come to my aid. I have no one to support me. Some of the residual debris of the bullet is still in my eyes. I’m in great pain. I cannot sleep at night. So, please help me fix my eyes. All my mates are in school while I sit at home in pain," she appealed.

According to Suzzy, her mother does not have the financial means to pay for the eye surgery, which is why she came out in public to seek assistance.

Both Ibrahim Mahama, who is the younger brother of the President of Ghana, and Kennedy Agyapong are known for their philanthropic works.

This perhaps explains Suzzy’s appeal to them for help in getting her life back.

Meanwhile, Suzzy’s mother has vowed to seek justice for her daughter against the young man who allegedly shot her in the face.

Speaking to a content creator, the woman blamed the school authorities for negligence, questioning how a student could bring a gun to school unnoticed.

She also warned the police against twisting the facts of the case, or else they would face her wrath.
