A witness, Dr. Olusegun Oyenuga, told the Lagos
High Court, Ikeja, on Friday that the collapsed
seven-storey guest house of Synagogue Church of
All Nations had no structural engineer.
Oyenuga made the statement in the trial of two
engineers arraigned on 111- count charge of gross
negligence and criminal manslaughter in the deaths
of 116 people, including 85 South Africans, in the
building, the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN)
reports.
“There was no structural engineer for Synagogue to
the best of our knowledge. During the compilation
of the report into the cause of the collapsed
building, no structural engineer for the church came
forward.
“The court needs to educate the public that every
structure needs a structural engineer.
“A civil engineer is not necessarily a structural
engineer unless registered by the Council of
Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria (COREN),” he
said.
The engineer, who was led in evidence by the
Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Mrs. Idowu
Alakija, told the court how investigations into the
collapsed building were carried out by his
committee.
“I was a member of the committee that generated a
report on the Synagogue building collapse. COREN
put up an advert that all engineers involved in the
construction of the collapsed building should report
to the COREN office at Ikoyi but no one showed up.
“I and other members of the committee went to the
site of the building collapse to conduct some
analysis and design tests.
“We requested drawings from the church and one
Mr. G.A. Akinfenwa came to our office to drop two
documents, a structural drawing and a calculation
and drawing for beam seven which was a major
beam,” Oyenuga stated.

I thought they have forgotten this issue.

They trusted Jesus and the Holy Spirit. The Great Architect and Designer of the World. He who suspended the Earth on nothing. The God of Abraham and Isaac.
God knew that building will fall. God will give his servant grace to pass through this trying times. To those who lost their lives, God is the Father to the Fatherless, he will provide comfort. The Devil will not win, the Church is falling marching on..
