Local Government Area of Anambra State has urged traditional rulers in
the state to invoke the spirits of the gods of the land to reveal the
perpetrators of St Philip’s Catholic Church, Amakwa, Ozubulu massacre.
Ikegwuonwu spoke at the palace of Igwe Nnamdi Oruche, the traditional ruler of Ozubulu on Tuesday when Anambra State Council of Traditional Rulers paid the monarch a condolence visit.

According to the Sun, while lamenting negative comments against him after the dastardly act, the Bishop asked:
He said God has blessed him enough to help others and that people should not be envious of that, urging those who were fond of making negative statements against him to desist.
He thanked the traditional rulers for their visit and show of concern and the fatherly role they have played since the attack of the worshippers. He thanked the Igwe and members of his community.
