Another church building collapses in Edo state

Barely a week after a building belonging to
Christ Chosen Church of God collapsed in
Edo state killing three people, another church
building has collapsed in the state.
A building belonging to Liberty Power Bible
Church a.k.a Power Palace at Asoro Slope,
off Ekenwan Road in Benin city, Edo state,
collapsed yesterday September 28th.
According to reports, the incident happened
shortly after members of the church left the
building after the close of service. No life
was lost.
The owner of the land where the church was
being constructed, Ajor Sylvanus, told
reporters that the building collapsed because
it was not properly built…
“The storm that followed the rain
was much but I have been
complaining about the building
structure. The pastor built the
church like a fence, no pillar. The
block is just ordinary sand. I have
been telling him that no pillar
would cause the building to
collapse. The building fell on my
building and damaged many
things. I thanked God that nobody
died. When the pastor came, he
was concerned about the musical
instrument in his church and
thanked God that his church
members were not around when
the building fell. I had to call the
police. The building has already
cracked and I have been warning
the pastor that the building will
collapse.” he said
