JHS Student Sets Mum In Flames, Murders Her Over Missing Phone Memory Card

It is odd to hear a JHS student has murdered his mother over a missing phone memory card and not his missing textbook. Students today are so much interested in mobile phones than their books, yet they do not use the phones for learning or put them to good use such as research.

Such is the case of one Emmanuel Gyan who blamed his mother, Madam Faustina Agyeiwaa, a 52-year-old woman, for taking illegal possession of his phone.
