About thirteen days after the terror attack by gunmen on worshippers at Saint Francis Catholic Church, Owo, Ondo State, funeral mass for the deceased victims has commenced, Daily Post reports.

No fewer than 40 persons were gruesomely murdered on June 5 when daredevil gunmen rained bullets on the worshippers during service.

The funeral mass began at 10:00 am after the caskets bearing the bodies of the deceased were brought in.

The mass took off following the procession into the hall by Catholic priests.
