The founder and General Overseer of the Synagogue Church of All
Nations, Pastor T.B. Joshua, has been slated to appear before the
coroner investigating the cause of the church’s building that
collapsed on September 12, 2014.

Joshua will be appearing on November 5, 2014 alongside the
contractor handling the collapsed six-storey building. No fewer
than 115 died in the collapsed building.

The coroner, Magistrate O.A. Komolafe, during the sitting of the
court on Friday, stated that the appearance of the church’s founder
was important to the findings of the court.

Though counsel to the church, Mr. Jude Nnadi, said Joshua’s
appearance would not be necessary because he was not an
eyewitness to the incident, Komolafe insisted that he must appear.
