Ngu Henry is the unlucky pupil whose dream of soon becoming a Form one student was chartered by the cold hands of death.

The Class six pupil who was candidate of the 2016 Government Common Entrance Exams was killed on the eve of the Exams.

His elder sister recounted that Ngu Henry after getting his uniform and other items set for the exams and with some home chores validated, he decided to follow his sister to the farm on the eve of exams.

Upon returning from the farm, he was asked to fetch water by his neighbor, of which he did and went for his own. 30 minutes later, Ngu Henry was discovered dead in the toilet with a rope around his neck.

Nobody could tell what actually led to the little boy’s death but the family lay claims on a neighbour who for some months had threatened the family with death. It is evident that he must have killed Ngu Henry and tangled the rope around his neck to appear as though he strangled himself.

The alleged murder is presently under Judicial Police custody pending investigation.

Meanwhile the State Council has ordered for a postmortem on the deceased who was a class six pupil at the St Michael Catholic School Bamenda.
