“These are the most difficult days of my life,” Owono says in the statement.
“I struggle to find the words, and it is very hard for me to come to terms with what has happened.
“I feel enormous pain over the loss of Jesus. I think of him, his family, and everyone who loved him.
“I know there will be many issues to address, and I will face whatever comes with the utmost respect. But right now, honestly, I cannot think about anything other than Jesus and the pain we are all experiencing.
“Rest in peace, Jesus,” BBC quoted.
