 Ethiopian forces regain control of border city near Eritrea Ethiopian government forces and their allies entered Adigrat, near the border with Horn of Africa neighbour Eritrea, days after Eritrean troops were pushed back from the strategic city. The reported incursion by Eritrean troops, which Eritrea has denied and Reuters could not independently verify, has raised fears of a return to all-out war along Ethiopia's northern border where the two nations have clashed before. Conflicts elsewhere in the region and tensions across the Red Sea have further raised the stakes. The fighting that broke out last month has been the biggest escalation since ​the Tigray war, in which hundreds of thousands of people died.

TB JOSHUA,TO FACE PROSECUTION FOR THE 116 PEOPLE THAT DIED IN LAST YEAR'S COLLAPSE-CORONER.

             Yesterday wednesday,a Coroner Oyetade Komolafe,concluded that T B Joshua's church Lagos Synagogue Church of All Nations {SCOAN}at Ikotu,should be prosecuted after a building collapsed and killed 116 people,most of them are identified as South African nationals.The Coroner said that ''The church must be investigated and prosecuted for not obtaining the relevant approval before embarking on the construction of the building.The church was culpable because of criminal negligence resulting in the death of the victims''.The Coroner's inquest was called to determine the circumstances of the collapse of the guest house for foreign followers of Joshua's Church on September 12,2014.Eighty one of the dead were South African visitors to the Lagos church.Though TB Joshua claimed the collapse was a sabotage,experts ruled out sabotage and said from their investigation,the guest house did not have permission and that the extra floors were being added to the building illegally.The Coroner also dismissed Joshua's claims in his ruling,which recorded that the victims likely died from multiple injuries,including fractured skulls,caused by the collapse.''The collapse was as a result of structural failures''.The Coroner also called for the prosecution of two engineers used by the church.The Coroner said further that the 32 witnesses called,Joshua was the only one that didn't turn up.''Among the individuals and organisations summoned,only Prophet TB Joshua refused to testify''.
