President Buhari has condoled with the families of the deceased, the Ondo state government and the Catholic community after the gruesome terror attacks at St Francis Xavier Catholic Church, Owo, Ondo State.

In a statement released on Sunday June 5 by his spokesperson Femi Adesina, the President said “only fiends from the nether region could have conceived and carried out such a dastardly act.”

The statement read;

“President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the heinous killing of worshippers Sunday at the St Francis Catholic Church, Owa-luwa Street, Owo Kingdom, in Ondo state.

“The president says only fiends from the nether region could have conceived and carried out such a 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.”
