Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu and his wife, Chief Betty Anyanwu Akeredolu couldn't hold back tears at the funeral service of slain victims of the June 5th, terror attack at the Saint Francis Catholic Church, Owaluwa, Owo.

Recall that the funeral mass was held at the Mydas Resort and Hotel, Owo on Friday, June 17. 

Governor Akeredolu, who wept during his speech, said the government failed to protect the victims of the terror attack.

The Governor stressed that the forces on the other side are evil, assuring that they will not triumph forever.

"We have failed to defend these people. Not because we have not tried. But because these forces on the other side are evil and they have supports. They will not triumph over us forever.” he said.

  The Governor noted that something must be done in the country, adding that the Security architecture of the nation needs rejigging.

"When I see the sea of heads that are here it speaks volumes. What has happened to us in Owo in Ondo state is indescribable. A lot of words are used to qualify it. Dastardly, horrendous. But I still believe there are words to use to describe it but I still short of those words.

  "We have just 22 (deceased) in this hall. A few of them have been buried. Because the relatives couldn’t wait till today. But as at the last count, these animals came to the church and murdered 40 people.” Governor Akeredolu said.
