Akwa Ibom is in shock after the sudden death of Goodness Edem Israel who was found in a gutter on Udok Street early Thursday morning.
Goodness, a young wife and mother, got a late-night call from someone she trusted while she was at her mother-in-law’s place in Ifa. She went outside around 11 PM and never returned. By the next morning, she was found dead, with no visible injuries, only foam coming from her nose.
A close family source revealed that she had a challenging childhood but was striving to lead a respectable life. Despite circulating online rumors, family members insist she was not engaged in any illegal activities.
The police have confirmed her identity using her NIN, and investigations are currently underway. According to report, it is believed that she might have been murdered elsewhere and then dumped.
There is a strong demand for the police to trace her last phone call, as it could be crucial in unraveling this tragic case.
