It rained heavily in Lagos on Sunday and this might have contributed significantly to the collapse of the church.

No death was recorded after the church building collapsed around 9:30 am while service was in progress.

A member of the church told newsmen that six worshippers sustained serious injuries after the building collapsed due to the heavy downpour yesterday.

Thoma Agodi, the Baale of Iragbo community who confirmed the incident, said he was inside his palace when a resident came to inform him that the church building had collapsed.
