President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the heinous killing of worshippers on Sunday, June 5, at St Francis Catholic Church, Owa-luwa Street, Owo Kingdom, in Ondo State.
In a message, the President said only fiends from the nether region could have conceived and carried out such dastardly act, adding that eternal sorrow awaits them both on earth here, and ultimately in the hereafter.
President Buhari mourns the dead, condoles with their families, the Catholic Church, and the Government of Ondo State, charging emergency agencies to swing into action, and bring succor to the wounded.
“No matter what, this country shall never give in to evil and wicked people, and darkness will never overcome light. Nigeria will eventually win,” the President said.
The terrorists had detonated explosive devices at the church premises, while worshippers were in the midst of the usual Sunday service, leaving an undisclosed number dead, with many others injured.
