Other overseas nationals in Lagos building collapse: Preacher─── 15:21 Thu, 18 Sep 2014
Lagos - A church building collapse that killed at least 80 and injured more than 130 people in Lagos involved Nigerians, South Africans, and other overseas nationals, the head of the property said on Thursday.
"Nigerians, South Africans, and citizens of other nations were affected," preacher and televangelist TB Joshua said in a statement posted on Twitter and Facebook, without specifying the countries.
South Africa's President Jacob Zuma said on Tuesday that 67 of his compatriots were killed in last Friday's collapse, but rescue workers said lack of cooperation from the church had hindered efforts to establish the identity of the other victims.
