A while ago, a video which shows the moment the Oluwo of Owo announced the arrest of the culprits who attacked a Catholic Church in the Ondo, has been shared online.
This comes after the state government revealed that last Sunday’s attack on St. Francis Catholic Church in Owo left over 20 people dead and over 50 people injured. The attack has also been linked to ISWAP terrorists.
Oluwo of Owo, Gbadegesin Ogunoye III announced the arrests of the suspects linked to the shooting on Thursday June 9, as members of the community cheered on.
