A circulating rumour of the body of a missing baby boy, exhumed from the Sotitobire church in Akure, which has been destroyed by irate youths in the state, has been declared false by the Ondo State Police Command.
It was earlier reported how some irate youths in Akure set ablaze a church over the alleged nonchalant attitude displayed by the leadership of the church following the announcement that a one-year-old boy, Gold Kolawole was kidnapped more than a month ago.
The State Police Command however in response to circulating rumour that the boy’s body was buried at the church’s altar noted, the information is misleading and was spearheaded by a popular TV station.
Our correspondent gathered from the police spokesperson, Mr. Femi Joseph, he said;
“The Ondo State Police Command wishes to inform the general public particularly the People of Ondo State that they should disregard the rumours making the rounds that the body of a recently declared missing boy in the state has been exhumed from Sotitobire church in Akure.
“It is most unfortunate that this misleading information spearheaded by a popular TV station, has ignited a spontaneous reactions from the people leading to wanton destruction of properties and injuries to many.
