The death toll in Synagogue Church of All Nation's building collapsed on Friday September 12 has risen to 85, as disclosed by the South African High Commissioner to Nigeria, Lulu Mnguni. He told AFP that the number of South Africans that died in the building collapse has increased to 84 and that 265 South Africans survived the incident, while 16 are unaccounted for.
"The number has risen from 67
to 85, with more bodies discovered on Thursday, September 18th. The number of
South Africans who were in the church might be higher, as we believe that some
people organized the trip themselves without using travel agents.
There are 265 South African
survivors. Initially, there were 96 injured South Africans, but now there are
only 29 still in hospital, including a three-year-old," Mr. Mnguni said.
However, a Ghana-based pastor, Isaac
Owusu Bempah of Glorious Word Ministry International (GWMI) in Accra, Ghana,
has claimed that the recent loss of lives ( SCOAN) maybe connected to Prophet
T.B. Joshua’s quest for promotion in the spiritual realm.
The Pastor seen as an undershepherd
made this disclosure during a recent interview with Ghanaian morning show, Okay
Fm. He stated that:
"This is evil hands at work
because I know people who have to make human sacrifices in order to be promoted
in the spiritual realm. I know some people will vilify me for making this
known".
According to Owusu, it wasn’t the
first time that people would lose their lives courtesy of the controversial
pastor, as he recalled the loss of four lives when TB Johsua came to Ghana for
a program.
"Look at what is happening to
him. You came for a program in Ghana and that led to the death of four people.
You also woke up one day and a whole building collapsed, killing over forty
people," he stated.
