President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the deadly attack carried out on a Catholic Church by some suspected terrorists in Owo, Ondo state early morning of Sunday.
The bloody attack saw scores of innocent worshippers killed in cold blood by rampaging suspected terrorists who invaded the church premises while worshippers gathered for the Sunday service.
Reacting to the incident, President Buhari through a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, mourned the dead and consoled with their families as well as the Government of Ondo State.
The President also charged the emergency agencies to swing into action and bring succour to the wounded.
According to him only fiends from the nether region could have conceived and carried out such dastardly act, adding that eternal sorrow awaits them both on earth here, and ultimately in the hereafter.
Buhari declared that no matter what, the nation shall never give in to evil and wicked people, with an assurance that darkness will never overcome light and Nigeria will eventually overcome the present security challenge.
