Murder at the Synagogue: Entertainers condemn TB Joshua...Want government to shut down church

Joshua

Angry and disappointed entertainers have come out to openly condemn and berate Prophet TB Joshua following the recent tragedy that killed hundreds of people when a two storey building that was being raised to six storey collapsed at the Synagogue Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) in Ikotun, Lagos State.

The building, which collapsed last week belongs to the embattled and controversial preacher from Ondo State. 

 They also castigated TB Joshua for the tragedy, which they said was avoidable. The mourning entertainers also called on the government to sanction the church and its leaders for negligence and waste of innocent lives by shutting it down indefinitely.

Below are their reactions:

It is just a testament to the fact that life has no value in Nigeria. If you mistakenly die wrongly in this country, just make sure you make heaven as a consolation. Otherwise, it is tragedy implacable. Very annoying. I will be surprised if the Man of God is made to pay severely for the tragedy.

What's wrong with Nigeria? The proprietors of this church should be arrested and charged for manslaughter. Has the church applied for and got planning permission to erect extra floors to the building? Who issues the planning permission? Has the church got public liability insurance to cover the building? Public liability insurance is to protect the public from going into such places. What has government done about this? Thus that means life will waste for negligence of the church. Lagos State government, please take action.

Does that mean the church doesn’t close? People should go home and rest? In the country, either it is Monday or Tuesday. People still dey full church! Dem no get work? I tire O! Only in Africa.

IyaboOjo (Actress)

What is stopping the government from questioning those guilty for the collapse for involuntary manslaughter? If it was the ordinary people, they would have taken over the building and chased everybody away.

Pencil (Comedian)

It is clear that the leadership of the Church does not feel the need to take responsibility for the building collapse despite glaring pointers that the building may have collapsed as a result of structural defects. It
also goes to show that, the church does not seem to care much about the dead but trying very hard to conceal information as much as possible. Unfortunately in Nigeria, with your money you can buy your way around and get "results”.

Fsingz (Musician)

We have become so impoverished that we have lost our sense of reasoning to the extent that whatever the "Man of God" says is final. May God open our eyes to see and learn from history before it’s too late. I hope there will never be a repeat of Guyana Tragedy.

DoktaFrabz (Musician)

If the pictures of the building I saw collapsing on the TV was indeed the church building, then it was detonated by a dynamite. I have worked on demolition projects on numerous occasions globally and I have no iota of doubt the building collapsed as a result of some explosive device.Terrorism, gas explosions, are other options to consider.

In this life, there is always tragedy, temptations and trials to the real children of God. We all should be very careful.

DJ Mewsic (Disc Jockey)

I expect the people who are responsible for this colossal loss of human lives either directly or indirectly to be answering questions by now no matter how holy they claim to be. The Lagos state government should look into this avoidable accident the same way they would if it were to be an ordinary citizen.

Olaniyi Afonja (Actor)

By now the police should have started asking questions from eye witnesses and even the prophet for more details about the structure, its history architectural design and plan. The police should call in the engineers for questioning.
