Families who Lost Relatives in ’s Church Collapse Planning a to Sue

Families who Lost Relatives in  ’s Church Collapse Planning a to Sue.

 

T.B Joshua

Well it seems the families who lost relatives in the T.B Joshua church collapse are not planning to let the matter rest. Two relatives of the deceased have informed the BBC they plan to sue T.B Joshua.

And they are not planning to go it alone, calling on other families to join them in their action against the church due to the circumstances leading to the collapse.

T.B Joshua has been telling anyone who would listen that the incident was caused by a hovering aircraft, and that it was an attempt on his life. I believe anyone who has even a peanut for a brain would recognise the explanation for the nonsense that it is and for T.B Joshua to attempt to take the public for granted as he has done he should expect consequences.

After all people died in the collapse, people with families, and this is what you come to tell them after the incident?

Thanduxolo Doro and Mpho Molebatsi are the two South African nationals planning the suit, and they told the BBC it’s not the collapse, so much as what happened after the collapse that is informing their action
.
“It’s not that the building collapsed, rather what was done after the collapse” Mr Doro told the BBC

“We saw reports that emergency workers were denied access initially, access that could have saved lives. The actions of the church after the incident are very telling”

Not only was access denied to first responders, something the church has denied; emergency workers also discovered the foundation could not support the additional floors that were being added.

Going on from there, Mr Doro published an open letter in a South African newspaper, calling on other families to join him in his suit.

He says he realises that some families might feel squeamish about taking on a man of God, but he would go through because he owes it to his sister.

The other individual, Mr Molebatsi, also told the BBC he has contacted his lawyers and is also trying to rally other families.

The death count for the incident so far is in the range of 115 people.
I think the families should band together and take on this action. If nothing it might win them some compensation for the carelessness of the church that led to this incident. At best lead to some punitive damages against the church for willingly endangering public safety like that.
Maybe after this suit the next time there’s an incident T.B Joshua would come out with a better lie.

Jackie Appiah to appear before World Cup Commission

Jackie Appiah to appear before World Cup Commission

                                 Jackie Appiah

Award winning actress, Jackie Appiah will on Monday, appear before the Justice Dzamefe led Presidential Commission of Inquiry into Ghana's dismal performance at the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.
The popular actress has been mentioned as one of Ghana's World Cup ambassadors paid over $20,000 each on a state-sponsored all-expenses paid trip to the global football tournament in the South American country in June.
They were to supposedly lead cheering of the Black Stars and help brand Ghana in Brazil.
Hitherto Minister of Youth and Sports, Elvis Afriyie Ankrah has already told the Commission that each of the ambassadors were paid $200 each during their stay in Brazil, even though many of them were not able to go and watch Ghana's matches in Forta Leza against Germany and Brasilia versus Portugal.
A host of ambassadors comprising of showbiz and ex-sports stars including boxing legend, Azumah Nelson, Abedi Pele, Tony Baffoe, Augustine Ahinful, Jackie Appiah, Becca, John Dumelo, C. K. Akunnor and Grace Ashly were all unveiled weeks to the tournament to lead a supposed fund raising campaign to help sponsor more supporters to go and support the national team at the tournament.
Now Jackie Appiah is first on the list of movie stars who benefited from the trip to Brazil to answer many controversial issues that have arisen in the aftermath of the Black Stars poor showing at the World Cup.
Other persons appearing before the commission on Monday include Ghana Football Association (GFA) Vice President, Fred Crenstil and former national football team stars, CK Akunnor and Augustine Ahinful.
"The presidential commission of inquiry into Brazil 2014 resumes sitting tomorrow Monday 10.00 am at the Accra Sports Stadium. Expected to appear include Fred Crentsil, Augustine Ahinful, CK Akunnor, Litina Travel and Tours and actress Jackie Appiah," said a statement by spokesperson of the Commission, Thomas Boakye Agyemang on Sunday.
The hearing will be held at the Media Centre of the Accra Sports Stadium.
