over 100,000 people were said to be gathered at the venue of the incident, with
facilities that can hardly take 5,000 people, when the stampede occurred. The tragic
incident has already become political, as the camps of Governor Peter Obi and Senator Chris
Ngige are trading blame over the incident.
About 200 victims that survived the anambra church stampede were taken hospitals in
Onitsha and Nkpor where a lot of them were treated and discharged.
