Members and Partners of Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), Emmanuel Television in Ondo State and its environs have thrown their weight behind the appointment of the wife of the founder of the church, Mrs Evelyn Joshua as the new leader.
The members in Ondo State and its environs disowned a group within the church, the Global Congress Group, who kicked against the emergence of Mrs Evelyn Joshua, but described the group as faceless and not known as members of the church in Ondo State.
Dissociating from the group’s call, during a press conference in Akure, the members led by Dr Francis Bamidele, said the group is not only alien to the church in Ondo State but to the church as there are no parallel groups within SCOAN worldwide.
Bamidele said the statement by the Global Congress Group should be seen as a narrative conjured by detractors to discredit the church, saying the people are out to destroy the church after the demise of the founder.
Bamidele who said the two leaders of the group who signed the statement are not members of the SCOAN or known to members of the first branch of SCOAN which has about 300 members, was sponsored by some looters who are siphoning the money of the church to their personal accounts.
He, however, said the press conference became necessary “to disclaim and dissociate ourselves in its entirety from the news making rounds on the internet as well as in other media outlets about the acclaimed group in Akure called the global congress of SCOAN members.
“The purported statement signed by one Adedeji Opeyemi, President and Mr Brown Chimezie, the Secretary, that Mrs Evelyn Joshua is not a Pastor or part of the founding members of the Church and rejected her emergence as the choosing leader of the Church.”
“The acclaimed Global Congress group and its so-called members are not known to us in Akure, none of us, genuine members and partners, has ever come across this acclaimed group called global congress and its members in several church programmes and activities conducted in Akure or in Lagos church auditorium in the last twenty(20) years.
“The Global Congress group, the president and the secretary’s names mentioned above are out rightly fictitious, fake and non-existent.
“However, investigations conducted revealed that the acclaimed global congress group is not unconnected to the cabal disciples of Prophet TB Joshua who upon the passing on to glory by Prophet TB Joshua on June 5th, 2021, connived and diverted several billions of the church funds into their personal accounts and looting the treasury of the church with impunity.
“Prophetess Evelyn Joshua stood up to the task against this looting spree and authoritative impunity being perpetrated by the cabal disciples, some of whom has been sent parking.
“Now, because it was no longer business like before, the cabals became bitterly aggrieved and resulted in a battle line drawn and now using every propaganda weapon to fight the new leader of SCOAN. It will interest you to know that the EFCC is already investigating these financial misappropriations of these former disciples.
“It is really sad and disheartening that these former disciples who came wretched along with their family members seeking for spiritual and financial help from Prophet TB Joshua several years back now turned around in connivance and became a thorn to the wife of the man who sacrificed so much spiritually and financially to bring them up, they benefited greatly from prophet TB Joshua’s benevolence and kind-hearted gestures to become spiritually and financially uplifted as well as becoming graduates from universities around the world.”
“We members and partners of the Ministry in Akure and environ of Ondo, Ekiti and Osun State, therefore debunk and refute this fabricated falsehood with absolute emphasis and to declare our full support of the emergence of anointed Prophetess Evelyn Joshua, the wife of Prophet TB Joshua, as the leader and arrowhead of SCOAN and Emmanuel TV, having been legitimately confirmed and pronounced by the Federal High Court holding in Lagos.”
The Ondo SCOAN members however said “The public is therefore advised to disregard and jettison such divisive statements from the disgruntled entities in whatever form or disguised under whatever propaganda weapon.
“All of us, members and partners of SCOAN and Emmanuel TV in Akure and environ of Ondo, Ekiti and Osun State are fervently in fasting and prayer for our Mummy, Prophetess Evelyn Joshua and the SCOAN Ministry and strongly believed the promises of Jesus (the God of Prophet TB Joshua) that says he will not abandon us like an orphan (John 14 verse 18).”
