Available reports say some members of the terror group that attacked and killed worshippers at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church Owo, Ondo State, on Sunday have been captured by security forces.
A video sighted by POLITICS NIGERIA shows a mob of protesters at the Palace of the Olowo of Owo.
The protesters, mainly youths, are trying to resist the planned movement of the suspects to Akure.
Security forces are now on ground to prevent the breakdown of law and order in Owo and in the palace.
Earlier, the Olowo of Owo, Oba Ajibade Ogunoye, confirmed that the suspects have been nabbed.
Watch the video here.
On Wednesday, the Ondo State Government gave a new casualty figure from the terrorist attack.
The state Commissioner for Health, Dr. Banji Ajaka, stated in a press statement that as of Tuesday midnight, the number of victims was 127 while 40 had been confirmed dead.
Interior Minister, Rauf Aregbesola, confirmed ISWAP’s involvement in the Ondo attack while briefing State House Correspondents after the National Security Council meeting in Abuja on Thursday.
Taking the bastards to Akure for trial? I’ll advice the youths not to leave the palace without these miscreants heads on stakes. Why belabour the court over an issue like this or do you expect them to plead guilty?
NOW THAT THE ACCLAIMED PERPETRATORS ARE ARRESTED WHAT NEXT.
What does arresting them change,can the numbers of the bastards equal the number of causaulties, can they even equal them as replacement to their various families,and even if the dead are now sacrificial lambs,can the security forces help to uncover their sponsors ?
May the souls of the victims rest in peace.
Proactive measures are better of…….
if it’s true that they have been capture it’s better not to give them freedom of living they should die.
