Abuja – President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the heinous killing of worshippers at St Francis Catholic Church, Owo, Ondo State.

Buhari made the condemnation in a statement issued on Sunday in Abuja by his Special Adviser on media and publicity , Mr Femi Adesina.

The President who blamed the attack on misguided elements said that “eternal sorrow awaits them both on earth here, and ultimately in the hereafter.”

Buhari then mourned the dead, condoled with their families, the Catholic Church, and the Government of Ondo State, charging emergency agencies to swing into action, and bring succour 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,” the President said. (vitalnews)
