Following the attack on Saint Francis Catholic Church in Owo by unknown gunmen, Rotimi Akeredolu, the state governor, has declared a seven-day period of mourning.
To honor the victims of the terror attack on Sunday, Akeredolu ordered that all public buildings, facilities, and official residences in the state fly flags at half-mast for seven days.
The Governor claims that the attack on the church’s innocent worshipers was a deliberate and calculated attack on the people of the state.
Akeredolu went on to say that those who carried out the unprovoked terror attack on the people had put everyone’s resolve to the test.
In a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Richard Olatunde, the Governor said, “We will not be deterred in responding appropriately to this dastardly act.
“In honour of the victims of this unfortunate attack, I hereby direct that all flags be flown at half-mast for seven days, starting from today, Monday, June 6, to Sunday, June 12, 2022.
“It is a collective loss to the people of our dear State.”
