In
an attack Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned as "unspeakable
sacrilege," an early morning mass at St. Philip's Catholic Church in Ozubulu was
turned into a bloody massacre on Sunday as gunmen entered the church and fatally
shot at least 11 people and injured 18 others.
Some
local outlets such as Vanguard report that
"no fewer than 35 worshippers" were killed.

State Police said in a
statement that they "will leave no stone unturned in fishing out the
shooters" but were quick to point out that the massacre was not a terrorist
attack. Instead, it was drug-related gang
warfare.
