The founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations, Prophet
T.B. Joshua yesterday asked the Lagos state High Court in Ikeja to stop proceedings of the coroner inquest set up by the
Lagos state govt to look into the circumstances that led to his
church's building collapse on Sept. 12th which killed 116.
T.B Joshua, who filed the appeal through his counsel, Olalekan, Ojo, also asked the court to
declare that his invitation to
appear as a witness before the coroner was a breach of his right to fair
hearing, as no case had been established against him before the
coroner.
T.B Joshua
who was supposed to appear before the coroner yesterday, through his
counsel, asked the coroner to suspend proceedings pending the outcome of
the case he just filed against it which is to be called up for hearing
on December 3rd.
The coroner, Magistrate O.A. Komolafe however declined his request
saying no one had served him court document to that effect.
