Easter Sunday Mass on April 9, 2023, was held for the first time in 10 months at St. Francis Xavier Owo Catholic Parish of Ondo Diocese in Nigeria.
Bishop Ayodeji, who started his episcopal ministry in May 2010 as coadjutor bishop of the Ondo Diocese, faulted the Muhammadu Buhari-led government for failing to even express an apology to citizens amid multiple attacks.
