Ondo Church Killings: Osinbajo Mourns, Insists Nigeria Will Not Surrender To Evil

The Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, has commiserated with the people and government of Ondo State over the unfortunate and mindless killing of worshipers at St Francis Catholic Church, Owo on Sunday.

In a statement issued by Laolu Akande, the media aide to the Vice President, Osinbajo said:

“I join President Muhammadu Buhari to condemn in strongest terms, the atrocious killing of worshippers Sunday at the St Francis Catholic Church, Owa-luwa Street, Owo Kingdom, in Ondo State.

“This saddens inexplicably, and I mourn the dead from this very unfortunate event. Also, my thoughts and my prayers goes to the victims and their families, the Catholic Church, and the government of Ondo state.

“We will not cower to the whims of elements who lurk in darkness to unleash inconceivable wickedness on our citizens. We will keep standing against evil and Nigeria will win.

“As the President as charged, emergency agencies are to swing into action to bring succor to the wounded.

“We stand in utter solidarity with the people of Owo and Ondo state in this terrible moment.”
