According to Vanguard newspaper report online, the spokesman of
SCOAN, Patrick Iwelumor, informed that no fewer than 44 South Africans
have arrived Lagos to attend the ceremony.
It would be recalled that about 116 people were reported to have lost their lives in the Synagogue guest house that collapsed in September in Ikotun area of Lagos.
About 81 South Africans reportedly died in the disaster.
TB Joshua “is going to lead the service to commiserate and offer spiritual support,” said SCOAN spokesman Patrick Iwelumor.
“As the chief mourner, there is a need for (Joshua) to connect with these people,” he added.
Joshua is one Nigeria’s most influential and wealthiest pastors whose followers include prominent politicians and business leaders across Africa and around the world.
The Lagos state coroner is carrying out an inquest into the causes of the guest house collapse within the church’s compound.
