PHOTOS: Church In Ozubule Reopens After Last Sunday’s Killing

Almost a week after the massacre that left at least 13 worshipers dead and scores injured, the affected church in Ozubule has been sanctified and rededicated to God.

The Catholic Bishop of Nnewi diocese, His lordship, Most Rev. Hillary Odili Okeke, yesterday led other worshippers to rededicate the St. Philip’s Catholic Church, Amakwa, Ozubulu to God.

Recall that at least one gunman stormed the church during early morning mass last Sunday in an attack that left many worshippers dead.

Some of the suspects of the attack, according to the state police command, have been arrested while measures are being drafted to get hold of the masterminds.

The church is expected to hold its first mass since the attack in the church premises today, August 13.
