TB Joshua and two contractors facing trial for criminal negligence over a church building collapse that killed 116 worshippers failed to appear in court on Monday, prompting the judge to adjourn the case. The case at the Lagos high court followed a coroner’s ruling in July that blamed Joshua’s Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) and two engineers for the September 12, 2014 tragedy.

Senior Pastor of Synagogue Church of All Nations, Prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua, and other trustees of the church  will be arraigned before a Lagos State High Court in Ikeja, today,  over the collapse of a six-storey building in the church on September 12, 2014, which left 116 persons dead.
