TB Joshua and his Synagogue Church of all Nations have released an official statement via their Facebook page on the collapsed building within the church premises. The incident happened on Friday September 12th, and has so far claimed over 77 lives.
The statement insists they are co-operating with investigations and rescue, but takes no responsibility for the collapse. They say it was an attack on the church and particularly, on T.B Joshua, and vow to witch hunt the planes that could just be incidental to the collapse.
The worst part is that while commiserating with the bereaved families, they called the dead matyrs. Matyrs are those who give up their life for their faith. Are those who lost their lives in this instance matyrs really, or innocent victims of the church's greed and incompetence?
Who are the engineers and project managers in charge of raising that building to unapproved heights? They are the ones responsible for this loss, reaching all the way to TB Joshua's desk! I hope that with all this platitude, they find a way to compensate the families of those dead.
