The trial of Pastor TB JOSHUA of the Lagos-based Synagogue Church of All Nations opens today before a Lagos High Court.
Pastor TB JOSHUA as well as other trustees of the church and two civil engineers engaged by them are facing charges over the collapse of a six-story guest house undergoing reconstruction, which killed over one hundred people in September last year. The move is based on the recommendation of a Coroner Inquest into the collapsed building on the 12th of September, 2014, which claimed the lives of one hundred and sixteen persons who were mainly South Africans. Magistrate OYETADE KOMOLAFE who presided over the Coroner Inquest had recommended the engineers, OLADELE OGUNDEJI and AKINBELA FATIREGUN, for investigation and prosecution for criminal negligence. Details of the arraignment were contained in a statement released by the Deputy Director of Public Affairs of the Lagos State Ministry of Justice, BOLA AKINGBADE.
The statement recalled that Justice IBRAHIM BUBA of the Federal High Court sitting in Lagos had dismissed the fundamental human rights enforcement suits filed by the engineers, seeking to stop their trial.
