LAGOS (Reuters) - For supporters of "Prophet" TB Joshua, one of Africa's best-known Christian preachers, the death of at least 80 of his congregation under the rubble of a Lagos guesthouse that collapsed a week ago was no construction accident.

"The church views this tragedy as part of an attack on The Synagogue Church Of All Nations," said a statement on his official Facebook page on Thursday.
