Report reaching me said that there was an alleged Bomb blast in Catholic Church at Awaluwa and St. Andrew Church at Imola street Owo local government in Ondo state.

Full report later

Terrorists have attacked St Francis Catholic Church in Owo, Ondo State, in Nigeria’s southwest region.

Emerging reports suggest that many worshippers have died and several others have been left injured following the explosion at the church which is situated close to the palace of the Olowo of Owo.

According to local sources, no fewer than 50 corpses have been moved out of the church with many casualties lying at the Federal Medical Center, Owo, for medical attention.

They explained that the congregation was caught unawares, saying the casualty might be more as some worshippers who were taken to the hospital have given up.

According to sources, the gunmen also used some explosives within the compound of the church but said most of the people were hit by bullets.

The perpetrators were said to have fled the scene immediately they carried out the killing, leaving many people dead.

Some dead bodies were seen soaked with blood in the church in videos circulating on social media.

Hope this is fake news please
I wasn't sure if it was real or not when I made this comment but after confirming and I saw videos, I couldn't hold the tears from dropping..
I think it's high time we Nigerians change the narrative and take laws into our hands to protect lives and properties. Now it is owo, who knows where's next..

This country is so messed up. You can't call your home a safe heaven anymore, who would imagine getting killed in a church.

Looking at the pictures and videos it's so sad. Like who kills a little kid for christ sake. cry

The question is, it’s Ondo state today, where tomorrow?


Don't you think that It's better to face racism in a white man’s land and be guaranteed safety than to live like a fugitive in your own country and wait for your own date to be slaughtered.

If your have opportunity, pls Japa

The video is very gruesome

More reason why we shouldn’t vote APC or PDP come 2023.

Shooting inside the church.

Soon it'll be swept under carpet and Nigeria continues to sink.

Thats the Nigeria we're in.
