Months after the massacre of worshipers in Owo, Ondo State, the Chief of Defence Staff, General Lucky Irabor has disclosed that the attackers have been arrested.

 

Newsonline reports that General Irabor stated this on Tuesday, during a media chat in Abuja.

 

Recall that over 40 worshipers who had attended Sunday, Pentecost Mass at St Francis Catholic Church, in Ondo State were attacked during the mass celebration by alleged herdsmen.

 

However, disclosing the arrest of the attacks, general Irabor, stated that the attackers were men of Islamic States of West Africa Province terrorists, ISWAP.

 

According to General Irabor, “Within the last time we met, we have recorded remarkable achievement. Let me bring it to your notice that within the same period, there have been ignoble actions of men of the underworld that have impinged on our collective well-being, namely the unfortunate train attack, the attack on Kuje correctional center as well as what has been reported in the past the attack on the presidential convoy.

“Also, the Owo incident which was intended to bring men and women of the armed forces to present them in a form and shape that make it to look as if the nation is on a siege. We have arrested those behind the dastardly act in Owo.

 

“It was my intention to present them to the public, but because of the investigation still going on, I had to change my mind. I will like to say that in due course, the world will see them and others who are behind other daring attacks in the country.”
