May God save the life of those who are still injured and may the soul of the dead rest in peace.

May only anger now is why should some people try to play politics with such unfortunate incident? And how are we sure that it is not the same party that tried to play cheap politics with this incident that planted people to shout fire, fire,fire? Almighty God will judge all of us. I am so pained right now at the desperation and level some people are ready to sink just to satisfy their personal political ambitions.

God will bring the Perpetrators to book

I know this will never make the frontpage.. Some Nairaland admin are apc bottom lickers hence the fake news sponsored by ngige and his gang of liars currently on the front page now

28 killed, 200 wounded in Anambrachurch stampede
NOVEMBER 2, 2013 BY EMMANUEL OBE, AKWA

No fewer than 28 persons were trampled to death on Saturday during a stampede at the Holy Ghost Adoration Ground, Uke, IdemiliNorth Local Government Area of Anambra State.
More than 100,000 people were said to be gathered at the venue of the incident, with facilitiesthat can hardly take 5,000 people, when the stampede occurred.
The tragic incident has already become political, as the camps of Governor Peter Obi and Senator Chris Ngige are trading blame over the incident.
About 200 victims that survived the stampede were taken hospitals in Onitsha and Nkpor where a lot of them were treated and discharged.
The incident occurred shortly after Governor Peter Obi, the governorship candidate for the All progressives Grand Alliance, Chief Willie Obiano; and the National Chairman of APGA, Chief Victor Umeh, among others left the place after an all-night church programme.
Obi, who later on visited hospitals, where the survivors of the stampede were being attended to, promised to set up a panel to investigate the cause of the stampede.
The Anambra State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Emeka Chukwuemeka , confirmed the incident but said he could not give figures or state the cause of the incident because investigations were still going on to establish the cause of the incident.
The Founder and Spiritual Director of the Holy Ghost Adoration Centre, Rev. Fr. Emmanuel Obinma, a Catholic priest popularly called Ebube Mmuonso (the glory of the Holy Ghost), also went round to see and pray for the survivors.
He, however, said he was still too shocked to comment on the incident.

Una go kill me oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
APGA supporters are just like Obi, they reason the same.

Where are Nairaland Moderators !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Someone is using Nairaland as a medium to openly Plagiarize a leading Nigerian Daily.
There could be possible legal implications.
Just saying.

Please we know the MODS here are pro APC and also anti-APGA but could they please move this to the front page for clarification sake!

This Anambra electioneering is something else. That structure by the way looks like it can collapse any time.

Can you guys please go and open your own nairaland and stop accusing seun and the mods of being pro can or pdp?some of you don't even want afam and oamj4 Abi wetin be that one moniker sef to express them selves.
Btw we all need to hear from the people on the ground to know the real cause,just heard from Gov Obi that some people in the congregation where calling someone else's name when he was about to address the people.
I can't phantom how fire outbreak will happen in that crusade.

Op is not smart.

Why not give us what vanguard says.
