Former President Goodluck Jonathan
The Ijaw Youths Council (IYC) Worldwide has condemned the attack
on the country home of former President Goodluck Jonathan, declaring the
circumstances surrounding the incident showed the hoodlums were out to
assassinate Jonathan.
President of IYC, Eric Omare, asked security agencies to unmask
the identities of the attackers and bring them to justice.
Omare said: “The Ijaw Youth Council has condemned the attack on
the Othuke residence of former President Goodluck Jonathan in the early hours
of Tuesday, December 24, 2019 by unknown gunmen.
“The circumstances of the attack especially considering the fact
that the former President just left his house before the attack clearly show
that the attackers were out to assassinate the former President.
“This is totally unacceptable to the Ijaw youths and Ijaw nation
in general and the perpetrators must be brought to book.
“We sympathise with the family of the soldier who was killed
during this dastardly attack.
“The IYC calls on the security agencies to, as a matter of
urgency, take all necessary steps to bring to justice those behind this
despicable attack on the residence of former President Jonathan.” (New
