Two Minors Sue T.B Joshua Over Father’s Death

Two South African children have filed a suit against T.B. Joshua   at the Lagos State High Court in Igbo sere, Lagos, over the death of their father.
The two children, Bulungu and Nora, three and six years old respectively, are looking for at least $520,000 (£370,000) in damages, per court papers quoted in the Nigerian media. The compensation they are seeking is calculated as the cost of expenses their father, Kalambaie Wa Kalambaie, would have made on them from his death till the day he would have turned 70
Their father was among 116 people killed when a hostel owned by the Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) collapsed in Lagos in 2014.
According to their lawyer, Bolaji Ayorinde, he has had a lot of inquiries from relatives of people who died in the building collapse about the possibility of taking legal action
The BBC reports that; “A coroner ruled last year that TB Joshua should be prosecuted over the collapse of the building, saying the church was culpable because of criminal negligence.
Although the engineers of the building are facing criminal charges, no charges have been leveled against the church or T.B Joshua.
“The pastor and church have consistently denied any wrongdoing.”
Prophet TB Joshua is the founder of the Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN). He blamed the 2014 incident on a strange aircraft “hovering” above the building which was a multi-storey guesthouse in a Lagos compound belonging to the church shortly before it collapsed
