Founder of The Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), Prophet T.B. Joshua will hold a memorial service for the 116 victims of the church building collapse in South Africa today.
The memorial service to mark the first year anniversary of the victims’ death is to honour the victims who met untimely deaths after a six-storey guest house belonging to the church collapsed at Ikotun.
This was disclosed in a statement signed by the church. According to the statement, Joshua had sent a delegation from Nigeria ahead to partake in activities leading to the memorial service.
Joshua who described the victims as Martyrs of Faith insisted that they did not die in vain.
The statement also reaffirmed claims that the building collapsed was caused by insurgents who used infrasound technology.
The statement quoted Retired Captain ‘Tele Olagundoye of the 3rd Marine Commando who was a blast specialist in the Nigerian Navy as saying “I watched the collapse of that building on Youtube. The way it collapsed brought back memories of some of our operations during the Nigerian Civil War and made me fear that terrorism has gone deeply scientific.
“Now seeing the way government is ignoring dangerous signals and chasing after shadows makes me worry that insurgents may have penetrated and tested the ground of Lagos successfully and the authorities don’t know yet.”
This is coming months after a Lagos coroner passed a verdict saying the building contractors should be prosecuted.
