A woman in Chicago has allegedly killed her 12-year-old son over a memory card.

37-year-old Fallon Harris is said to have killed her son, Kaden Ingram at their South Chicago home. Fallon was seen on camera do the second and fatal gun shot that killed her son after her first shot failed to kill the boy.

It was alleged that Fallon had asked her son where the digital memory card she had brought from her car the night before. When Ingram had said he didn’t know she had fired a shot to his head. The shot had not killed him and he began crying.

She took a call from someone and when she was done she came to demand for the whereabouts of the memory card again and when she got the same answer she had fired the shot that killed the boy.

After the incident, Harris had called two of her relatives to inform them that she had killed her son Daily Beats reports.

The relatives had subsequently called the police and the boy’s father. Harris is currently facing a first-degree murder charge.

Lavelle Ingram has revealed to the Chicago Sun-Times that there have been concerns over Harris’s mental health and that she truly loved her son.

He said: “We didn’t know that this was going to transpire. We had told her to get help. I guess it finally reached its boiling point… She loved [Kaden] more than anything in the world. I’m losing a young god. I’m losing a young genius… I’m losing everything I had in this world. Everything.”

The federal government signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with KONGA on Monday to empower Nigerian youth through the exploration of Information Communication Technology (ICT) with a view to building their capacity towards self-reliance and employability, as part of its stated commitment to continue to harness youth potentials for improved socio-economic growth and development in the country.

At a signing ceremony in his office at the Moshood Abiola stadium in Abuja, Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Mr. Sunday Dare, reaffirmed that President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration is fully committed to improving the lives of Nigeria’s teeming youth through various initiatives such as e-commerce and small and medium scale enterprises (SMEs).

He added that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on state economies is expected to prompt governments to consider harnessing youth potentials to combat unemployment, youth restiveness, and other social vices, and that it is in this vein that his Ministry has partnered with KONGA, a leading global e-commerce company, not only in Nigeria but globally.

”No nation handles unemployment without leading on entrepreneurship,” he says, adding that “this MoU will create another window through which our youth can explore more sustainability.”

“The agreement will reinforce and support the Federal Government’s intentional policies of engaging the youth via various initiatives aimed at alleviating the burden of youth unemployment and putting them on the path to entrepreneurship,” the Minister said.

Mr Nebeolisa Anako, Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Youth and Sports Development, praised KONGA for collaborating and identifying with the Ministry earlier in his remarks.

He promised that the Ministry will continue to create an enabling environment for the full implementation of the government’s numerous policies and programs in keeping with the current Administration’s policy priorities.

Mr. Leo Stan Eke, President of the KONGA Group, also spoke about how the MOU will change the narrative by giving the young a platform to take a courageous step toward self-development.

He stated that the program will assist at least 500, 000 young people.

Mr. Eke continued, “They will be trained in Digital Technology with the long-term goal of wealth generation through the E-Commerce system.”

Following a 5-0 loss to Manchester City last month, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said he was at his “lowest” point of the season.

The Gunners were relegated to the Premier League’s relegation zone after their heavy defeat at the Etihad.

Arsenal had lost their first three league games under Arteta, but a 1-0 home win over Norwich City on Saturday lifted them to 16th place.

The Spaniard has now revealed how his friends and family assisted him in dealing with his ordeal.

“You’re upset with yourself, angry, and tired,” he explained.

“You just want to punch yourself in the face because you aren’t doing things correctly and aren’t getting the results you believe you deserve. I was probably at my lowest after the loss to City.

“You begin to analyze things, and you hear a variety of viewpoints… Then there’s the importance of having the family, parents, and friends that I do. They demonstrate their commitment to your relationship with them in difficult times.

“After that, it’s everyone in this club, from the top to the bottom, and the energy they try to provide… and how inspiring it is to see them so motivated to make a difference.”

Chelsea, according to former Manchester United captain Gary Neville, will be difficult to stop in the Premier League this season.

Following the Blues’ 3-0 win over Aston Villa on Saturday, Neville was very impressed.

This summer, Thomas Tuchel only made one permanent signing, bringing Romelu Lukaku in from Inter Milan. Saul Niguez, a loanee from Atletico Madrid, has also arrived.

Despite having a quieter summer than their opponents, Neville believes Chelsea will be the team to beat this season.

“It was interesting because I wouldn’t expect Manchester United to beat Newcastle the way they did – with or without Ronaldo,” he said on his Gary Neville Podcast.

“But then I went home from Salford to watch Chelsea play Villa, and Villa played well, and Villa are a decent side, but Chelsea were robotic and methodical once again.

“Ooh, it’s ominous,” I thought when they scored the first goal, Lukaku. The striker will almost certainly score, and the players in front of him will form a strong midfield. It will be extremely difficult to put a stop to them.

“Everyone will be talking about Manchester – Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City, Cristiano Ronaldo’s Manchester United – but everyone knows Chelsea is serious.”

Scales of justice and Gavel on wooden table and Lawyer or Judge working with agreement in Courtroom, Justice and Law concept.

Hamza Koudeih, a Lebanese cybercriminal, was convicted and sentenced to one year in prison with the option of a N1 million fine by Justice Tijjani Ringim of the Federal High Court in Lagos.

The court also gave the federal government Koudeih’s N100 million in a firm’s Zenith Bank account.

The convict’s Mercedes Benz GLE43 SUV, two iPhones, and an HP desktop computer were also confiscated.

The decision came after Koudeih agreed to a plea deal with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

In November of last year, the EFCC charged Koudeih as the second defendant, alongside his Nigerian co-defendant, Kayode Philip alias Voice of the King.

They pleaded not guilty to charges of cyber fraud and attempting to keep $6 million and £1 million from the Bank of China.

They also “knowingly engaged in computer phishing and spamming, resulting in the acquisition of sensitive information” from various emails, according to the EFCC.

On August 24, Koudeih, who was out on bail, tried and failed to get permission from the court to return to his home country to see his psychiatrist. He then went to the EFCC and told them he wanted to change his plea.

Following that, Koudeih signed an EFCC bond promising to “be of good behavior and never to be involved in any form of economic and financial crime both within and outside the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”

“I have listened to the submission of the prosecuting counsel, Rotimi Oyedepo, on the plea bargain agreement between the second defendant and the commission,” Justice Ringim said in upholding the application.

“This court has entered the same agreement as a judgment.”
