Bright Osei-Agyei
Bright Osei-Agyei, a final year student of the University of
Education, Winneba, Ghana, has drowned after he went to the beach to
celebrate his birthday, last Saturday.
According to JoyOnline, the deceased, a level 400 student reading
Business Administration went with friends to the Sir Charles Beach in
Winneba at about 16:00GMT Saturday, a friend, Timothy said.
After several rounds of swimming, they all retired to the shore.
But after a while, Bright said to be in his mid-20's wanted another dip
in the sea while his friends watched.
An eye witness recounts that a short time after he jumped into the
water, they noticed their colleague was struggling and had raised his
hand beckoning for help.
Osei-Agyei was shouting, but his friends could not swim to the
distance Bright had found himself to rescue him. They called on some
fishermen at the beach for help.
All hopes of rescue faded away as Osei-Agyei was washed away out of sight before anyone could reach to save him.
His body was washed ashore at the fishing harbour end of the beach Sunday afternoon. The skin around his eyes had peeled off.
The body of the deceased has been deposited at the Winneba
Government Hospital and his family has been informed of their son's
death.
