So many different emotions, but mostly anger and absolute frustration. Sick to my stomach. Such a mess this place has become.
Wizkid had taken to his Instagram story where he shared a heartbroken emoji with the Nigerian flag right in front of it.
Don Jazzy has shared an emotional and lengthy message to the families of the lives lost in the Owo Ondo attack.
His message read:
My heart goes out to the relatives and friends of victims of the gruesome killings in Owo, Ondo state today. This is a crime against humanity which shouldnβt be tolerated in any civil society. To paraphrase Senator Adeyeyeβs words in the red chamber a few years ago: Every crime is local and the solutions should be locally sourced.Be that as it may, I believe a strong political will would be needed to nip these crimes in the bud so the sanctity of lives and properties can be preserved hereafter. I also think the issue of state police should be back amongst talking points as the general elections approach.Despite the political ramifications of this as noted by critics, I think the safety of the Nigerian people should be given the utmost priority. Letβs all work together for a Nigeria thatβs safe for all.

This govt has failed us. From Kaduna to Owo the most we’ve received has been condemnation. Our lives ought to mean more to any govt. I hope we’ve learned our lesson. I hope we’ll do better next year. My heart goes out to the bereaved. We are the bereaved. All of us. #owomassacre

I keep typing and deleting the things I'm feeling, because who cares how I'm feeling when people actually lost their loved ones. Their parents. Their children. Slight panic attack.
