This article was written by freelance journalist Ihechukwu Njoku, who brings you juicy reports on activities of TB Joshua and the Synagogue church…:-). Read his latest report below…
After the widely publicized story of Nigerian Pastor TB Joshua returning an elderly woman’s tithe, another video has surfaced showing the cleric’s unique action was not an isolated one.
“On 5th June, my wife died,” Ezekiel Ayodeji from Ondo State, Nigeria, lamented, three young children standing beside him. He was shoddily dressed, clearly malnourished and physically challenged – one of his legs being almost half the size of the other.
“One week later to that time, the shop where I was selling electrical parts burnt down completely in a fire,” he painfully continued, the congregation at The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) listening solemnly.
“When this problem arose, my landlord gave me a quit notice. They then sent my children out of the school. I am suffering; I don’t have food.”
Pastor T.B. Joshua paused sombrely before addressing the church. “These are the people that make your money useless… Money becomes a curse when we are not spending it on the needy.” He then announced he would give Ezekiel N300,000 coupled with six bags of rice and the promise of scholarships for his three children.
The clip posted by Emmanuel TV’s YouTube channel fast-forwards one week to show the same man sharing his ‘testimony’.
