A brilliant girl died after sitting for her West African School Certificate Examination, WASCE and passing with 9As.
The girl, Chinecherem Promise Ibeh, also got a scholarship to study Software Engineering in the United Kingdom, UK
A burial postal seen on several Facebook walls says the girl was from Umunneochi local government area of Abia state.
Chinecherem, who was just 15, performed excellently well in the 2023 West African School Certificate Examination, WASCE.
People who posted the story on Facebook alleged that Chinecherem was poisoned, but this was not independently confirmed.
One of those who posted the story is Ofoke Bright Ikenna, who said:
“An exceptionally brilliant girl child from Abia state has been k1LLed by her stepmother out of jealousy and envy. The stepmother has since confessed that she poisoned her to death.”
“Chinecherem got 9As in Senior Secondary Certificate of Education (SSCE) and subsequently won a scholarship to study Software Engineering at a UK university. May her soul rest in peace.”
Others who posted Chinecherem’s burial arrangement also told the same story. The burial arrangement signed by Sunday Ibeh described Chinecherem’s death as a painful one, but it did not explain how she died.
