SCOAN not closed down, TB Joshua's wife, Evelyn
Pastor Evelyn maintained that the Synagogue is a church preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ and that it would not close down despite the allegation levelled against the late founder of SCOAN.
The Facebook post reads:
"'The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations is, still existing, for the foundation of this church is not of man but of God,' Pastor Evelyn Joshua says at The SCOAN branch in Akure, Ondo State. "We are a church, not a cult, for we preach Jesus Christ," she tells the people."
SCOAN reacts to BBC documentary
According to the BBC documentary, over two dozen of the church's ex-members shared their accounts of alleged sexual assault, forced abortion, manipulation, and other abuses allegedly committed by Late Joshua during his lifetime.
But Dare Adejumo, the public affairs director of SCOAN, in a statement, said the BBC documentary was defamatory and that individuals that the medium had interviewed were not familiar with the church.
