wonders shall never end

these deaths are the highest number of south Africans that have died in a group outside their country in recent times?

Well I can believe that. South African rarely travel out of their country. Unlike most Africans, they're so content with living within their country.

If 67 SA'ians died in the collapse, then the dead will be in their 100's

Mercy Lord....

olaeffect: This is very sad.

Something I see here however is a country that has value for its citizens. If it were Nigerians that died in such manner in another country we will not even know. When we even have people dying daily like that here at home on daily basis.

We need to place more value on human life.

R.I.P to the dead.

don't blame the govt but Nigerian travellers .. some travel with fake documents and what not

Rip to the dead, may God comfort the families of those left behind, so so sad and unfortunate.....

its a pity...may they RIP..

Kei144:

Not caused by a jet, neither by Boko Haram; but simply by the fact that the building was overburdened by construction of additional floors. This is the engineering assessment of the situation.

God bless you oo.. Some pple would come here and say y did he not see it. Y didn't he prophecy abt it. When it was obviously a structural defect. Which must have been giving different signs but must have been ignored. Is it today plane have been filling over buildings.

Gboliwe: The total death recorded according to Nigeria is what again?

Clearly, someone skipped nursery school.

RIP to the dead. It is such an unfortunate event.

I dey tell you.

NEMA said 47 or something, as at yesterday.

The rate at which our politicians, religious leaders, CEO of industries, security agencies etc. sacrifice the life of people to greed, negligence, power, money, women etc in Nigeria is disheartening.
I don't blame them though. I blame the gullible followers and miracle seekers who have hands but cannot work, who have eyes but cannot see and, who have brains but but surrender them to rustiness.

R I P to all those that died

Dnt know why l'm finding it difficult to believe this figure,its way too high for only sa

Ho! Why is this happening to Synagoge. Every enemy of TB Joshua the Lord is watching you o.

cirmuell: I dey tell you.

Afrocatalyst: And they said 59.

If S. African are 67, then other nationals and Nigerians could be how many?

how did zuma know the number of dead south africans? another propaganda looming.

Na waa oo all the way from south africa because of religious. GOD know more better.

My condolence to their families

cutieberie1: it is nt d pastor's fault.d building collapsed d church engineers are at fault.r.i.p to d 67 s.a

I still blame the engineers. Maybe they didn't read him the full risks involved.

isn't he a prophet as u say, hw cums he wasn't able to prophetize his own doom

Is there no god in SA that 67 of their nationals travelled all d way to Nigeria in search of god. Never knew that South Africans are also mumus when it comes to religion.

Rip to the dead

Funjosh: Ho! Why is this happening to Synagoge. Every enemy of TB Joshua the Lord is watching you o.

nw na enemy cosam, u re a fool beyond comparism

If TB Joshua wasnt a man of influence, he would have been arrested, tried and sentenced possibly to death for his crime. Yet he walks freely waiting for the right time to perform his miracles.

Chigold101: how did zuma know the number of dead south africans? another propaganda looming.

U go school at all?

The Zuma we are talking abt here is not Zuma Rock up Northern Nigeria, we are talking abt Jacob Zuma, South Afrucan President.

slap1: I still blame the engineers. Maybe they didn't read him the full risks involved.

im 100% sure they told him the full details about the risk he is taking, he jst chose to ignore sch warning signs due to negligence

NEMA's lying game is over. Fowl yansh don open, chai! If 67 South Africans were killed, find number of Nigerians, individuals from different countries that were killed? This is 9 x9 matrix problem

halix239:
isn't he a prophet as u say, hw cums he wasn't able to prophetize his own doom

God wuld not do what we are suppose to do for us. Its just a pastor or man of God driving a car without brakes saying God protection oversees every. Him accident no go get part 2.

very pathetic

nora544: The pastors ist still silent.

I feel that there will be more death bodies found the next day.

wtf is death bodies

I dunno if it's just me but when I watched the video of the collapse. The way it went down was similar to the way 9/11 collapsed.

Anyways he did make a response:

NIGERIAN preacher and televangelist TB Joshua on Sunday linked a deadly building collapse at his Lagos megachurch to a suspicious aircraft but rescue workers ruled out the theory of foul play.

Mr Joshua, who is dubbed "The Prophet" by his followers because of his purported predictions and healing powers, showed footage of the moments leading up to the collapse on his emmanuel.tv network.

Nigeria’s National Emergency Management Agency said 42 people were killed in Friday’s incident, and 130 had escaped or were pulled out alive from the building rubble.

In the security camera footage, apparently from opposite the vast church compound, what is described as an aircraft is seen over the building four times at 12.30pm South African time, 12.43pm, 12.45pm and 12.54pm.

The uncompleted building, five floors of which are visible above a high wall, is then seen to collapse at 2:44pm, throwing up huge clouds of dust into the air.

"After the incident, the strange aircraft does not return," a commentary accompanying the images adds.

There was no independent verification of the authenticity of the footage but Mr Joshua has said he would make it available to Nigeria’s security agencies.

His Synagogue Church of All Nations is located in Ikotun, near Lagos international airport.

Mr Joshua’s theory about the low-flying plane featured in a number of Nigerian newspapers on Sunday. But the emergency management agency’s southwest co-ordinator Ibrahim Farinloye rejected claims of sabotage and said extra floors were being added to the building without changing the foundations.

"If it were an act of terrorism or sabotage, it would have gone into rubble," he said.
