Building collapse!! TB Joshua To Appear in Court on Monday

Following the collapse of the church building, the Lagos State government set up a judicial panel to look into the cause of the collapse.

The panel is scheduled to start sitting on Monday 13 October at the Lagos State High court at Ikeja, Lagos.

PMNEWS gathered that all the parties involved have been summoned to appear before the panel when it begins sitting.

It will be recalled the building collapse caused a controversy following claims and counter-claims as to the cause.

The state government has partly hinged the collapse on building agents who did not get approval to erect the structure, adding that, it was due to structural deficit as the building was originally a two-storey building.

TB Joshua had made several claims that the building was demolished with explosives. He also blamed an aircraft that hovered over the building four times as a possible cause for the collapse.

His church also stated that the collapsed building was approved for 12-storey and as such, the structure was strong enough.

It was on the strength of the controversy that the state government set up a panel to actually find out the cause of the collapse.
