Vatican City, Aug 7, 2017 / 07:26 am ( CNA/EWTN News ).- After a bloody attack at a Catholic Church in southern Nigeria left 11 dead and several more wounded, Pope Francis conveyed his sympathy to the victims and their families, assuring the community of his prayer.
In an Aug. 7 telegram addressed to Bishop Hilary Paul Odili Okeke of Nnewi, Pope Francis said he was “deeply saddened to learn of the loss of life and injury following the violent attack in Saint Philip’s Catholic Church, Ozubulu.”

The Pope extended his “heartfelt condolences to you and to all the faithful of the Diocese of Nnewi, in particular the families of the deceased and all those affected by this tragedy,” and offered blessings of “consolation and strength” upon the entire diocese.
The telegram, signed by Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin, came after gunmen stormed St Philip's Catholic Church in the city of Ozubulu early Sunday morning, killing at least 11 people and wounding 18 more.

No one has yet claimed responsibility for the attack. According to BBC News, local terror group Boko Haram, which has burned hundreds of churches and killed thousands during its more than decade-long insurgency in the country's north-eastern region, was not involved.
Rather, the attack is believed to have been the result of either a private feud or drug-trafficking.
Reports conflict as to whether there were one or two gunmen involved, however, police have begun a manhunt in the area in the hopes of finding those responsible.

IpobExposed:
kanu is really a criminal

Seriously Smh.
Heart attack is real.
What's the relationship between the post and Nnamdi KANU ?

Do you know why Ipob is growing stronger on daily basis ?, it's because a lot of people are opposing the struggle.

If there is no opposition, trust me, only few people will be aware of the movement.
Before Kanu's incarceration, I didn't know the full meaning of Ipob, but your played a lot of roles by popularizing the movement with the way you dance naked on nairaland struggling to stop Ipob

Keep the good work.

Rip to the dead.
God bless His Holiness.

Nice one from the Pope

I hope you know you've derailed this thread with your stupidity?

You will not amount to anything by attempting to tarnish another man's image and just demands. Ask Timaya what happened to the guy that released diss tracks for him.
You may end up like that guy. Forget that the fake IPOB news you peddle is giving you small kobo at the moment.

I've told you before. Kanu does not even knoe you exist.

I don't know why nairaland mods have left you to wonder unclad around here. Get a life!

I don't understand why almost every tread on this platform is being turned into a Tribal war



Thanks for your prayers Pope.

R.I.P to the Dead and speedy recovery to those injured.

Nice one

Really painful.

and also advise that those idiots stop drugs.

That's what they call unwelcome attention. The goons involved in this unfortunate incident must be regretting their actions by now.

They've lost almost everything.
