Edward, Son-In-Law To Jonathan ‘Shot’, As Gunmen Invade His Residence
Unknown gunmen on Friday shot the son-in-law of former President Goodluck Jonathan, Prince Goodwill Edward, after invading his State Housing Estate residence in the Calabar Municipal axis of the Cross River State capital.
Edward, a Special Adviser on Youths Affairs to Governor Ben Ayade of Cross River State, who is from Abi Local Government Area of the state, got married to Jonathan’s daughter in a very lavish and publicised wedding in 2014.
Although the severity of injuries sustained in the attack could not be ascertained, the Punch reports that he is presently receiving treatment at an undisclosed medical facility in Calabar.
The Commissioner of Police in the state, Mr. Hafiz Inuwa, said the matter was yet to be officially reported to the police, disclosing that records show it was not the first time that Edward had been attacked.
“This was the third or fourth time that this thing is happening. Do you know that as at now I’m talking to you there is no official report about it? We are not going to wait until the matter is reported. We are the police we know our responsibility.
“Even if they have a reason for not reporting which we are not going to sit down until the matter is reported, we have the responsibility to investigate and by the grace of God we will go after those responsible.
“Information just got to me that this is the third or fourth time that they have attempted him,” Inuwa said.
