Recall that Tinubu had earlier offered prayers for the people affected by the dastardly act that has reportedly claimed over 25 lives.

The APC National Leader posted a series of tweets on his Twitter page on Sunday to condemn the gruesome act.

Tinubu prayed that the almighty God will grant the bereaved comfort and healing while also wishing that the soul of the departed will find eternal rest.

He said, “I strongly condemn the evil and brutal attack that took place at the St Francis Catholic Church, Owaluwa, Ondo State, this morning. I pray healing and comfort for the injured and the bereaved.

“My thoughts and prayers are with H.E. Governor Akeredolu, the government and the people of Ondo State. May God bless us all.”

Tragedy struck in Owo town on Sunday when suspected terrorists invaded the St Foto Francis Catholic Church, located in Owa-Iluwa, opening fire on harmless worshippers and killing scores in the process.

The attackers also reportedly blew up some part of the premises with a grenade to inflict further damage.
