Breaking: Government Cancels Democracy Day Celebrations

Government Cancels Democracy Day Celebrations.

The Ondo State government has cancelled this year’s June 12 Democracy Day celebration slated for Sunday.

 

The state government said its decision was a consequence of the terror attack on innocent worshipers at St. Francis Catholic Church, Owo, last Sunday, June 5, 2022.
