An Ikeja High Court on Friday dismissed an application filed
by the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) seeking to stop the ongoing
coroner's inquest into its collapsed guest house.
Justice Lateefa Okunnu dismissed the application for lacking
in merit.
In her ruling, Okunnu held that the coroner's court was not
known by law and could not, therefore, be sued but the coroner, on the other
hand, could sue or be sued.
