Owo attack: Akeredolu directs flags to fly at half mast

Ondo State Governor Rotimi Akeredolu has directed that flags be flown at half mast across the state.

A statement by Richard Olatunde, chief press secretary to the governor, said the directive was in honour of the victims of the terror attack on worshippers of St Francis Catholic Church, Owo on Sunday.

The governor directed that the flags should remain at half mast for seven days.

“Those who unleashed this unprovoked terror attack on our people have tested our collective resolves. We will not be deterred in responding appropriately to this dastardly act.

“In honour of the victims of this unfortunate attack, i hereby direct that all flags be flown at half-mast for seven days, starting from today, Monday, June 6, to Sunday, June 12, 2022. It is a collective loss to the people of our dear state,” Akeredolu said.
