Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State has referred to
the terror attack in Owo on June 5, 2022, as a tragic event that devastated
both the government and people of the state.
Akeredolu stated that the state would always remember the
tragedy that occurred in Owo Kingdom when innocent worshippers were attacked at
St. Francis Catholic Church.
The Governor in a statement signed by his Chief Press
Secretary, Richard Olatunde, reflected on the massacre that took place a year
ago, which resulted in the death of 41 individuals and numerous injuries.
He lamented that the workers of evil invaded the peaceful
land of Owo land and ended the lives of innocent worshippers, causing a black
Sunday.
The Governor acknowledged that even one year later, they
were still grieving over the incident, and the scars of the heavy blow
inflicted on them would always remind them of their losses and the pain they
had endured.
He described the attack as a brutal act that could occur in
any society, with the Church of God being desecrated and turned into a
slaughter slab.
