A catholic priest, Rev. Fr. Cyril Ogunsusi has said that the Christian community in Oye and Ilupeju Ekiti did not receive notification of attacks from any terrorist group.
This came following the rumour that some members of Boko Haram had marked the churches in the axis for attacks.
Ogunsusi gave the information during his homily on Sunday at the SS Peter and Paul Catholic Church, Oye-Ekiti, saying that the rumour was to create fear and panic among Christians in the two communities.
Ogunsusi, who commended the turn-out of Christians to church services, urged them to keep striving for the kingdom of God against all odds and tribulations.
