According to news report, the death toll of South Africans who died in the collapsed building of the Synagogue church of all nations has increased from 67 to 84. The 84 death toll contradicts the 80 death toll being reported by the Nigerian media.
The South Africa's high commissioner to Nigeria, Lulu Louis Mnguni, who spoke this Friday morning, said "the number has risen to 84," Mnguni said. "The search... has come to a conclusion. There were still 17 bodies outstanding," said Mnguni
A total of 349 South Africans were in Lagos on matters connected to the church when the disaster occurred.
Out of the 349, 265 were found alive.
The Synagogue church should release the list of people in the building as at the time of the incident to ease the conflicting numbers.
