Inside Nigeria
What Caused Anambra Church Shooting – Gov Obiano
Governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano Sunday morning stormed Ozubulu community in Ekwusigo Local Government Area of the state where many were killed by unknown gunmen at St Philip’s Catholic Church to ascertain the level of damage and sympathize with the people.
Speaking at the Church premises, the governor revealed that preliminary security investigations show that the shooting was caused by a feud between two brothers from the community living outside Nigeria
“This is sacrilegious, totally unacceptable in Anambra State,” Obiano said.
The governor asked the people to go about their businesses without fear or panic noting that this isolated case must be followed to the root and all perpetrators must be brought to book.
“We can’t allow this happen in Anambra, we must get everyone involved to face the music” the governor added.
According to the Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Social Media, Ifeanyi Aniagoh, Obiano also visited Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital, Nnewi where the injured are being treated.
Thanking over 50 doctors who were on ground looking after the injured, the governor assured their families that all medical bills will be taken care of by the State Government.

How could Obiano have concluded his investigations in such brief and quick time? What has the killing incident got to do with two brothers living abroad? I suspect this has something to do with the IPOB attack on Obiano last Sunday. Whether it is him or someone else, the truth must come out soon.

Shut up.What do u expect the governor and Nigeria government to say.. A governor that denied that there was no killings last year by Nigeria military government upon all the evidence.. This is handwork of faluni herdsmen and they took away our women
