A resident of the Commonwealth Hall, University of Ghana was this week given severe beatings and an ugly haircut by rival Katanga Hall residents of the Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.
He was threatened with death by his attackers who exacted ignominious pleas for clemency from him.
The students from KNUST were at the University of Ghana to participate in a debate competition between the halls.
But in a twist of events, an escalated clash between the Vandals and Katangees left one person injured and 10 others picked up by the Police.
The clash is believed to be fueled by a video of the attack on the Vandal which went viral on social media.
In the video, the student, wearing a Vandal polo shirt is bullied by some other students whose faces are not shown.
They ask him to plead for mercy and to ask his fellow Vandals to come and pay a ransom for his release.
