Joana Yabani, a fourth-year Biological Science student of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), was found dead in the early hours of Thursday morning on February 27, 2025.

The police on that same day arrested a man called Daniel Tuffour in connection with her passing. Daniel Tuffour was also a student of KNUST. The two were hostel mates. Reports also showed that they were in a love relationship, which turned sour.

In an interview with @thevokofficial1, Rejoice Yabani shared how she heard about the demise of her daughter and

"Some called me and said there is a picture flying about that they have killed a lady at KNUST. The pictures look like your daughter."

According to Mrs Yabani, her daughter did nothing wrong but to fall in love with the wrong person.

"She only fell in love with a young man with the heart of a beast."

Mrs Yabani was grateful to KNUST for the help they received in identifying the person who allegedly took their daughter's life and called for justice.

"His act has been picked, but my daughter is gone forever. I want to thank the school. At least they had cameras that could pick evil doers like Daniel Tuffour. Only they have to be fair and just; otherwise, my daughter's blood will speak, and it will shock people."
