A candidate (name withheld) from the Adzoatsi Junior High School, writing the 2024 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) in the Ketu North Municipality of the Volta Region, delivered a baby girl in the early hours of Tuesday, July 9.

Information gathered by the Ghana News Agency indicates that the pregnant student began her exams on Monday, writing the English Language and Religious and Moral Education papers without any apparent issues.

She, however, went into labour on the second day and was rushed to the Weta District Hospital, where she was delivered of the baby.
