Some survivors of the Reigners Bible Church
International Inc, Uyo building collapse have given a first-hand account of how
the building collapsed on Saturday.
One of the survivors, Eno Etim, who spoke with Punch’s
correspondent, on Sunday, said the building collapsed shortly after a lady was
called to lead the praise worship.
Etim, who hails from Mbo Local Government Area
of the state, said there was no foreboding of the monumental disaster that was
waiting to happen.
The housewife, who spoke shortly before she was
moved out of the St. Luke’s General Hospital, Annua, Uyo, to the University of
UYO Teaching, Uyo, said the congregation was dancing when the church collapsed.
She said that she could
not recall how she landed in the hospital, adding that an iron bar hit her at
the back, sending her reeling on the floor before she passed out.
Explaining that she was not a member of the
church, Etim said she had come to witness the ordination of the presiding
pastor of the church, Akan Weeks, as a bishop, because they both belong to the
United Intercessors Network.
