Crime / 18 year old Sentenced To Life In Prison For Killing His Sister Over Wifi Passwod by AllGists: 1:55pm On Aug 06, 2019
A Georgia teen who strangled his sister to death during a dispute over the family’s Wi-Fi password has been sentenced to life in prison.

Kevon Watkins, who was 16-years-old at that time of the fatal attack in February 2018, had reportedly been playing an Xbox game before he changed the family’s Wi-Fi password because the internet was slow due to the number of people using it. At one point, Kevon’s mother tried to take his Xbox from his room when his sister Alexus Watkins,19, confronted him, according to testimony at the teen's trial and 911 calls from the incident.

Alexus was pronounced dead of asphyxiation early the next morning at a local hospital. On Friday, August 2, 2019, Kevon was found guilty of felony murder and aggravated assault.

During the hearing, Bibb County Superior Court Judge Verda Colvin explained she found Kevon guilty of murder instead of voluntary manslaughter because his 13-year-old brother tried to get him to stop choking their sister.

“Even under the best estimation, by the time [a sheriff’s deputy] got there …. It had been at least 11 minutes that the defendant had to have been choking his sister,” Colvin said, according to the local paper. “In those 10 minutes, she had to have stopped moving. Perhaps that wasn’t noticed by the defendant because he was still angry.”

Politics / Army Denies 'Killing & Secret Burial Of 1000 Nigerian Soldiers' by AllGists: 6:15pm On Aug 01, 2019
The Defence headquarters has described as false, the story by The Wall Street Journal which accused its officers of burying a thousand dead soldiers in secret graves, to avoid bad publicity. The American medium had reported that soldiers are being buried in unmarked graves in Borno State, after the army suffers defeat from Boko Haram.

But Defence spokesman, Colonel Onyema Nwachukwu released a statement saying: “This insinuation can only emanate from an uninformed position of the author of the said publication. Therefore, it must be unambigously clarified that the Armed Forces of Nigeria does not indulge in secret burials, as it is sacrilegious and a profanity to extant ethos and traditions of the Nigerian military.”

He insists fallen heroes are honoured in befitting military funeral of international standard, featuring funeral parade, and solemn prayers.

Rasheed's body was found dangling in her living room at about 1:00 p.m and her body was discovered dangling from the ceiling in the room by her husband who was kept in the dark about the loan and the pressure from the bank

According to reports, Rasheed allegedly committed suicide over a loan taken from a micro finance bank popularly known as LAPO. A family source said the deceased stood as a guarantor for her friend who obtained a loan from LAPO office at Awotan area and when the friend was unable to pay the loan, she went into hiding. The bank officials turned to Rasheed to pay the money, giving her an installmental payment arrangement which she must follow or be arrested. The pressure from the bank forced her into depression.

Confused as to how to get the money, Mrs Rasheed decided that the best way to get out of the dilemma was to take her life.

It was a great honour receiving Festus Keyamo SAN, Ministerial Nominee from Delta State in my office after he was screened by the Senate. With young and vibrant Nigerians like him at the helm of affairs, we can expect very robust contribution to governance under President Buhari
