The Zambia Medical Students Association extends its deepest and most heartfelt condolences on the passing of Abigail Maketo, a 5th Year MBChB student at the Copperbelt University.

We mourn together with The Copperbelt University Medical Students Association (COBUMEDSA), her classmates, friends, lecturers, and the entire medical fraternity during this profoundly difficult time.

Abigail was a dedicated student, a dependable leader, and a compassionate colleague whose presence positively impacted those around her. Her loss is deeply felt across our student community.

As we grieve, may we find strength in unity and comfort in supporting one another. We keep her family and loved ones in our thoughts and prayers.

May her soul rest in eternal peace.
