Many people were killed this morning during the early morning mass at St. Philips Catholic Church, Ozubulu. The death toll has reportedly risen to 30 including the father of the man who built the Church.(Report From Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital, Nnewi) This is just too sorrowful.

The report saying more than 150 killed is very untrue.

Reportedly the Men of the underworld came to avenge a deal that went wrong with the man who built the Church.

St Philip’s is reputed as a purposed built architectural masterpiece, a luxurious place of worship consecrated about two years ago by the Catholic Bishop of Nnewi Most Rev Dr Odili Okeke.

The project was solely financed by world famous philanthropist High Chief Nnamdi Ikegwounwu (Ebubechukwuuzo Ozubulu) . Bodies are being taken to nearby Ozubulu Joint Hospital mortuary
