Lagos to arraign TB Joshua, other Synagogue Trustees, Engineers on Monday

Uncategorized

A statement by the Deputy Director, Public Affairs of the Lagos State Ministry of Justice, Bola Akingbade, have it that the trustees of Synagogue Church of All Nations, SCOAN, will today be arraigned before a Lagos State High Court in Ikeja over the collapse of a six-storey building in the church on September 12, 2014, which led to the death of 116 persons.

The Lagos State Government had set up a Coroner Inquest to unravel what went wrong, and via a verdict delivered on August 7, 2015 by Magistrate Oyetade Komolafe, the Coroner had indicted the engineers that constructed the house and recommended them for investigation and prosecution for criminal negligence.

The engineers— Mr. Oladele Ogundeji and Mr. Akinbela Fatiregun subsequently filed two separate suits before Justice Buba seeking an order restraining the police from inviting, arresting or prosecuting them over the victims’ death.

But Justice Ibrahim Buba of the Federal High Court in Lagos dismissed the fundamental human rights enforcement suits filed by the engineers to stop their planned trial.
