Suzzy reached England on May 10 for eye treatment after her classmate shot her accidentally. Her brother came with her as caretaker, along with Rafik Mahama, who helps businessman Ibrahim Mahama. Ibrahim Mahama pays all costs for the trip because Ghana doctors said the injury needs special surgery not found at home. The student from Adventist Senior High School landed safely after careful planning.
Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Ablakwa worked with British officials to obtain fast-travel papers. The British High Commissioner Harriet Thompson helped ensure Suzzy could leave quickly for care. Ghana sent staff from its London office to help the girl during her stay. Doctors plan to operate on her eye soon. Everyone hopes she can heal completely from this terrible accident.
