I took my time to listen to the audio carefully, I analysed it. What you should understand is when something like occur, first of all it's a disaster and would rubbish the name of the church despite it's a natural disaster as a result of poor infrastructure or over adding of building extension. God4bid, assuming If today there was a bomb blast in Aso-Stone and so mani casualties do you think the Fed Govt will want to give you the real detail of what went wrong? It's cause its a big blow to their face and they will do all they can to keep it confidential. T.B Joshua clearly said it that their are more than 2000 foriegn bodies trying to get access to him despite d pressure he is going through and all he ask was for our journalist who he allowed access to some information to help him pass it to some of the foriegn bodies outside and show appreciation to this journalists or whatsoever, then that rif-rat journalist Nicolas turn the whole thing around just to gain attention, why did he edit the audio and start it from when T.B Joshua mention money? That's the first mistake he made. Am not a fan off bullshits mennn!.

felzylix: You've done the right thing, buh when the consequences arise... OYO is ur case #remember

exxell: @Nicholas, I dont really know what your motive is but all I can tell you is kudos and more greas to your elbow. I loved the part where you said if it was the Pope you will still come out with the story.... I used to love TB Joshua even though am a Catholic. Even when I listened to the Audio and I knew it was a bribe (though not implicitly stated in the audio); I still decided to "deceive" myself and convince myself that its not a bribe but one of his generous gimmicks.... But what really troubled me in the audio was the way people were laughing in the audio... The MOG included. I was so suprised. Were peoples lives that trivial that he had to be laughing at that moment in time? I leave judgement to the boss in the sky!

byrron:


That wasn't a natural disaster sir!
Its a man made disaster induced by greed.

50pseamer: Reporter, i think you are just looking for cheap popularity, im not a member of the synagogue, but it is not civilized to judge a case that is under investigation, moreover youre not a technically qualified person to judge whether the structure was strong enough to carry additional floors or not, and note there should have been a project Engineer assigned to the project, TB Joshua is not an engineer or builder, he did not do the calculations, stop spoiling his Name , fear God, you have a lot of followers here but i think they will have a change of heart if they can see that projects like that have Engineers assigned to them, and if it was a structural problem the engineer will be held responsible, why should TB Joshua give you money to save the licence of an Engineer or contractor, you are only blocking further generosity to your colleagues if they go to him again, it is a good thing in christianity to Give money to people and help people that dont have as much as you do, how do you know he does not feel remorse for those that died?, or should he not be grateful about those that were saved?, if he asked you what will you write, it does not mean he said you should lie to people read Psalm 19 about presumptious sin, im an Engineer and i can tell you that you putting blame blindly on TB Joshua is very ignorant, wait and let the investigation be concluded. the make your comment, you lost the 50,000 naira gift for nothing.

PerfectFortune:

You can't be sure of that. There is a lot of conspiracy theories going on out there and the press have always been involved.

Stelvin101:

My brother I completely agree with you. It's a man made disaster due to the fact that the building have been extented to a length the foundation floor couldn't hold it anymore. Okay now if we are to point accusing fingers do we point it to the general overseer of the church or the managemnt in charge of building and maintaining the place cause don't tell me T.B Joshua will leave his altar and supervise building.

woodcook: Bros I think you are not looking at the crux of the matter, the reporter released the tape because according to him other reporters had down played the cause of the collapse which he believed was as a result of the money offered. I am sure it would be difficult for any of the reporter to convince any right thinking person that not focusing on the actual cause of the collapse has nothing to do with the said money. On the other hand rather than Lagos state governor and our CinC mourning with the families of the victim or actually pretending to be, they were busy having a "photo session" with TB Joshua. So forgive the reported and any other persons who failed to accept that the media has not be comprised on this issue.

woodcook: You mind me asking what you do for a living? In as much as Joshua is not engineer but his church contracted them, hence, if "something" goes wrong he stands to be the first accuse.

Stelvin101:

There is something I want to hear u say that you are not saying and beating around the bush, I won't say it. First of all T.B Joshua is not the engineers who build the place, I doubt if he even know the name of one of the engineer or how that place was built. Why are you wicked and heartless Nigerians sounding as if the innocent man send drone to bomb the place. Na wa oo, Nigerians sha. Abeg I don tire to argue. I rest my case. One luv

jnrbayano: Here is a person who is compassionate as Jesus the master taught.

Here is a person who has turned down a huge amount of money in respect for the dead.

Here is a person who values human lives and will put his life on the line to pass that across.

Here is a person who cares about his fatherland, Nigeria

Here is a person who loves his job and is contented with the low proceeds that comes out of it.

Here is a person who has a working conscience.
BUT BROS IS TB JOSHUA THE ENGININEER OR BUILDING CONTRACTOR HANDLING THE PROJECT , THAT HE HAS A NEED TO BRIBE REPORTERS SO HE WONT GO TO JAIL, INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING , THE REPORTER MAKES NO TECHNICAL SENSE, HE JUST LOST MONEY TO EAT GOOD FOOD

May the good lord shield you from evil and never stop blessing you.

Amen.

PerfectFortune: Nicolas Ibekwe has finally found a way to get public attention and become popular and it seems to be working for him already.

Press everywhere in the world receives money to write good stories about somebody or an events. The Briths do it through BBC while the Americans use the CNN and others. President GEJ employed one recently while the APC is also suspected to have employed the services of Sahara Reporters.

They call it image laundering....

woodcook: I dont easily get shocked but you did surprised me. If I may ask how do you cross a motor way?

Mactop01: Nigeria journalist still have a long way to go ...... smh

Balos: COME ON GUYS LETS BE LOGICAL, HAVE LISTENED TO THE AUDIO SEVERAL TIMES AND STILL DNT UNDERSTAND HOW HE BRIBED THEM. MR REPORTER TRYING TO GAIN POPULARITY HMMMMM. ASK.YOUR SELF WILL TB JOSHUA BE SO FOOLISH THAT HE DOESNT NO THE REPORTERS HAD VIDEO AND AUDOI RECORDER WITH THEM. MR REPORTER IS NOTHING BUT A JOKE

Enoquin: It is when you are faced with going against a norm, that you truly understand that courage is more than a dictionary definition.

The corruption in this country stinks more than a 3 day million dead rats.

infohenry: Reporters are the people fuelling crisis in this country through their brown envelope reportage. Kudos brother let them hate but the truth must be told.

AdeniyiA: Na only you go explain yourself, nobody send you work, N50k couldn't have shut your mouth IF you're determined to write/speak the truth. i view this as a personal vendetta against the Prophet.
I'm sorry because after this your momentary 'fame', state of oblivion might be your next destination.
btw, you just lost N50k?
