Today is a very sad day in my community Owo, Ondo state Western Nigeria.
Christians woke up very early in the morning to worship their God in Catholic Church Owaliwa Owo. It is the oldest Catholic Church in Owo. It has a free primary school before I was born. This same Church has the first and best Hospital before I was born.
This Church served us wholeheartedly. I am not a member of Catholic Church but the contribution of this Church to the development of Owo is the best in the history of our village.
This morning, four terrorists entered into the Church and bombed the innocent worshippers. Chaiii. Gory scenes. In Owo, we are all related by blood.
Dozens of injured victims are scattered in different hospitals in Owo. Some are dying some will survive by God's grace.
We live in fear in Owo. These terrorists are from Northern Nigeria. They are boko haram and fulani herdmens working hand in hand.
Kidnapping and killing is daily occurrences. Our government is afraid to fight back.
I Have never been this afraid in my life.
I Have all the videos of today's incident in case anyone needs them to help us.
These four terrorists were in sisters city on April 27th this year. They kidnapped my younger brother for a ransom. They came back in May, they kidnapped an expertriate constructing our road and killed his security personnel. He was shot dead instantly.
Nothing was done.
Owo needs security. We can't go to farm. We are just helpless.
My tears can't stop flowing.
For how long!
