By Dr Frederick Fasheun, the founder and president of the Oodua People’s Congress has appealed to the Pastor Temitope B Joshua to rescind on his decision to relocate to Israel after perceived government persecution in Nigeria.
Recall that the popular Pastor had recently revealed his plans to move his church from Nigeria. The OPC leader made the call during a press conference held in Lagos on Thursday.
He urged the respected clergyman who founded the Synagogue Church Of All Nations to stay behind in the country and continue to grow his ministry.
“TB Joshua intends relocating perceptibly in order to escape persecution at home, founded SCOAN which commands up to two million local and international tourists annually,” Fasheun said.
He also charged the Federal and Lagos State governments to stop the judicial persecution of TB Joshua immediately.
“Nigeria stands to lose several positive dividends currently bestowed by SCOAN on not just Ikotun, Lagos State, but also on the entire country; we shall be losing a giant intercessor, whose prayers are helping to sustain the peace and sanity of this country.
“We shall be losing Prophet Joshua and SCOAN’s donations, charities and philanthropy worth no less than N8 billion in scholarships, disaster relief, house rent support, sports and sportsmen sponsorship and others,” Fasheun added.
