(http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/75306000/jpg/_75306515_line976.jpg) The Nigerian Emergency Management Agency (Nema) says its emergency workers were at first prevented from participating in the rescue.
Nema spokesman Ibrahim Farinloye told the Associated Press news agency that despite arriving on the scene just over an hour after the collapse at 13.50 local time (12.50) on Friday, they were not given full access to the site until 17:00 on Sunday.
Such accusations have been denied by the church (https://www.facebook.com/tbjministries/posts/719465714840874).
Earlier, Mr Joshua said a small plane had been circling over the building before it collapsed, and suggested it was an attempt on his life.
