Some members of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) have reportedly rejected Mrs Evelyn Joshua, wife of the late founder, Prophet T.B Joshua as the person to succeed him.
In a statement signed by Adedeji Opeyemi and Mr Brown Chimezie, President and Secretary respectively of Global Congress of SCOAN Members (GCSM), a group under the auspices of the SCOAN, they have called on people all over the world to help in “rescuing the church from ruins”.
“She claimed a congregation of 2000 Church members appointed her. This is ridiculous: Where did the meeting hold? Was it through a Yes vote? Was it through election? Was it through ‘anointing’ by the 2000 members?
“Where is the resolution of the 2000 members? Can 2000 members pick a successor in a Church with millions of members all over the world in five continents? What is the constitution of the Church? Was it followed?
“Mrs Evelyn Joshua is not a Pastor. She was never anointed by Pastor Joshua. She was not part of the founding members of the Church. What is the basis of her emergence as the person now parading herself as the new leader?
“Under the aegis of SCOAN Congress, made up of members from 188 countries, we shall continue to inform and educate the public, peoples all over the world on every development at SCOAN until wisdom, the ways of God and common sense prevail.”
