TB Joshua’s Synagogue Church Rejects Coroner’s Verdict; Says it’s Unreasonable, One-sided & Biased

Posted on by

OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM THE SYNAGOGUE, CHURCH OF ALL NATIONS IN RESPECT OF THE VERDICT GIVEN BY THE LAGOS CORONER’S COURT RELATING TO THE INCIDENT THAT HAPPENED ON SEPTEMBER 12TH 2014

The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) rejects the verdict of the coroner on the grounds that it is unreasonable, one-sided and biased. The church maintains its stand that the incident was as a result of sabotage.

From the verdict given today, we would like the public to take note of the following:

There was no finding that the church engaged the services of unqualified or incompetent
professionals for the construction of the building.
There was no finding that the church procured substandard materials for the construction of the building, as confirmed by officials of the Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) who gave evidence at the coroner and certified the materials used were all approved and of good quality.
There was evidence that the church had started processing the relevant building approval before the incident, which had been approved and assessed for payment by the appropriate government bodies.
There was no finding that connected the incident with the lack of a building permit.
There was no finding that church members prevented the statutory responders from carrying out their rescue duties.
The church disagrees most vehemently with the finding that the incident was due to structural failure.

The church considers it strange that the coroner did not refer in its verdict to the evidence of the COREN-registered structural engineer and contractor used by the church nor did it evaluate the conflicting evidence given by civil and structural engineers as to whether or not the incident was as a result of structural failure.

It was a one-sided verdict which left many issues unaddressed and questions unanswered.

The church disagrees with the findings concerning the aircraft that hovered over the six-storey building because there was evidence before the court that the incident could have been brought about by external forces such as controlled demolition or an explosion.

The verdict did not even refer to the CCTV footage which showed the 6-storey building falling in less than 4 seconds – a manner consistent with controlled or externally induced demolition – nor did it refer to the interim report and investigation by the Nigerian police force which pointed to sabotage by external forces.

The church also disagrees with the finding that foundation failure was a remote cause because that is contrary to the overwhelming expert evidence of the structural engineers invited to the coroner who eliminated foundation failure as a possible cause.

The recommendation for the investigation and prosecution of the contractors and structural engineers used by the church for criminal negligence is premature because it gives the impression the coroner has found them guilty when a coroner is not allowed in law to make any finding of civil or criminal liability against anybody.

The recommendation for the investigation of The SCOAN for not possessing the relevant building permits is unwarranted because it did not take into account the evidence that the church had started processing the relevant building approval before the incident. As a matter of fact, the amount payable for the processing had already been assessed by the appropriate government agencies.

The recommendation that statutory responders should be adequately equipped was informed by the fact that the statutory responders who carried out rescue operations in this case were ill-equipped and ill-trained, and that it was the church that mobilised human and material resources to ensure a successful rescue operation.

Finally, the coroner recognised that the conduct of the investigation of the incident was compromised by the failure of the appropriate government agencies to take necessary steps to secure and preserve the scene of the incident, which calls into question the integrity and reliability of the entire investigation.

This is a statement from Barr. Olalekan Ojo, legal counsel to The SCOAN.
We repeat: No matter how long a lie is sustained, the truth will someday prevail!

Here’s what had happened before this statement was released early morning today – after 10 months of sitting, the Lagos Coroner’s Inquest into the collapse of a six-storey building belonging to the SCOAN, had yesterday in Ikeja indicted the church for “criminal negligence” and recommended that it be prosecuted.

The court said the Church did not get the necessary permit or approval before commencing  construction of the building. 116 people died in the tragic incident.

  39. This table displays Bitcoin Historical Prices on January 1st of each year. Can Bitcoin recover from the “flash crash” and double in value by year’s end? The answer might surprise you. In January of 2024, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission authorized U.S. exchange-traded products to buy and hold bitcoin directly on behalf of their investors. Before that date, ETFs were only permitted to gain indirect exposure to bitcoin through futures contracts. As of May 2024, there are 34 bitcoin spot ETFs, with combined assets exceeding $60 billion. Of course, bitcoin is a store-of-value asset and an alternative monetary technology. But few users are pricing bitcoin based on the latter quality. That’s why bitcoin production costs serve a purpose similar to those of gold: They set a floor on the price, which can help determine whether the underlying is undervalued. Historically, bitcoin’s price has tended to bottom out at around its production cost, as in the second half of 2016, the first half of 2019, March 2020, and the second half of 2022.

Our neighbors from the Great White North recently found their way into the legal sports betting realm following the passage of Bill C-218, The Safe and Regulated Sports Betting Act, in June 2021. The bill officially approved single-game wagering throughout all of Canada, finally putting an end to the country’s parlay-only betting policy. Prior to C-218 getting the green light, the only legal action offered to Canadian sports bettors involved multiple legs in one bet – making it nearly impossible for players to consistently profit over time.
