The leading aspirants for the Ekiti Central Federal Constituency 2 seat, Mr. Dele Philips has condemned the attack on worshippers at St. Francis Catholic Church, Owaluwa Street in Owo, where no fewer than 35 worshippers were killed and several others seriously injured.
Mr. Philips condoled with families of the victims, Owo community, the Catholic Church and the entire Nigeria describing the tragic incident as an act of inhumanity to mankind taken to the extreme.
In his words, “it was a black Sunday in Owo Kingdom in the neighbouring Ondo State and a terrific blow to the country. It is disheartening to see children, women and men in agony, while several corpses have been taken to the morgue”.
