Anambra church killings: Culprits to face justice —Osinbajo

ACTING President Yemi Osinbajo has said perpetrators of the “atrocious and mindless acts of violence” which occurred on Sunday at the St. Philip Catholic Church Ozubulu in Anambra State, will be brought to justice, vowing that they will be hunted down.

Many worshippers were viciously attacked and a number of innocent Nigerians killed and injured during the attack.

A statement issued by his spokesman, Laolu Akande, in Abuja on Monday, showed that Osinbajo is receiving regular updates on the status of investigations regarding the killings.

It said the Acting President has been in touch with the Anambra State Governor Willy Obiano, police authorities and other security agencies, and assured that the perpetrators of the heinous crimes would be brought to justice.

Osinbajo condemned the “despicable acts of violence,” and commiserates with families, relatives, friends of the victims, the entire people and the government of Anambra State.
