Ondo Govt Cancels June 12 Celebration, Gives Reason

Akeredolu

The Ondo State Government has cancelled this year’s June 12 celebration, which was originally scheduled for Sunday, June 12th, 2022.

According to the state government, the cancellation became necessary due to a terror assault on innocent parishioners at St. Francis Catholic Church in Owo on Sunday, June 5, 2022.

The cancellation, according to the Governor’s Chief Press Secretary, is to allow the entire people of Ondo State to grieve their loved ones who died in the awful incident.

After the deadly attack, no fewer than 40 people were killed and scores sustained varying degrees of injuries.

In honour of the victims of the attack, Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu ordered that all flags in the state be flown at half-mast for seven days.
