About 80 renewable energy engineering students from the University of Energy and Natural Resources were victims of a violent robbery during their return from a field trip to Bui Dam.
This incident took place on April 16, 2024, while the students were returning from a field trip to the Bui Dam. They were ambushed by armed robbers who stole their phones, laptops, money and some sexually abused. Tragically, one student, Abdul Aziz Issah, a final-year student, was shot and later died from his injuries.
