A final-year student of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Edmond Asirifi Marfo, has sadly died due to kidney failure.
Edmond died at only 22 years of age from the deadly ailment after seeking alternative treatment for his condition.
According to reports, the Level 400 Business student started experiencing blurred vision in March and visited the hospital where he was found with a high BP of over 200.
Further checks found both kidneys had failed. He reportedly attempted treating himself with natural herbs and alternative medicine but time wasn’t on his side as he passed away.
His death has come as a shock to the KNUST community, with Edmond having been described as “a promising young student who had dedicated himself to his studies and was well-regarded by his peers and faculty members,”
