“This is Peggy Ayelbassah. She was murdered by armed robbers while travelling to Salaga for her nursing college admission interview. Life is fragile enough – a fleeting spark in the grand scheme of things. One day you’re boarding a bus with dreams of wearing nursing whites, the next day you’re just another name in the crime statistics. Peggy’s story exposes our collective illusion of control. We make plans – admission forms, interview preparations, career roadmaps – while forgetting how easily a few bullets can reduce all ambitions to nothing. The universe doesn’t care about your potential. Fate has no quota for tragic endings. And still, we persist. Perhaps courage isn’t the absence of fear, but the determination to pursue nursing school admission slips even when armed robbers patrol the roads to Salaga.”

The Member of Parliament for Afigya Kwabre North Constituency, Collins, also took to his X account on July 25, 2025, to express sorrow over the passing of Peggy Ayelbassah.
