Tragedy today hits the Nigeria Catholic Community as suspected fulani herders stormed St. Francis Catholic Church Owo, in Ondo State shooting at random at parishioners killing scores and injury many.Â
According to Rev. Fr. Anthony Adetayo, the gun men entered the Church just as the Mass was about ending and opened fire on innocent parishioners.Â
He said they also made use of some explosives as parishioners scampered for safety as many lost their lives and many others terribly injured.
The unknown gun men after the attack was said to have fled without trace. The deceased worshippers has been deposited at the mortuary while the injured ones are receiving treatment at the hospital.
