Ms. Dankwaa has been accused of negligence by her students after the death of a student at her school on Tuesday, 7th July 2020.
 
According to the students, their deceased colleague, who is believed to have had ulcer, fell ill and was not attended to adequately by the school authorities for multiple hours.
