Pastor T.B. Joshua to Suspend Healing Programmes To Avoid Ebola Explosion

the Lagos State Government and some federal delegates on Sunday paid a visit to the General Overseer of the Synagogue Church of All Nations, Prophet TB Joshua in Ikotun area of the state.

It was gathered that the visit was aimed at sensitizing the church and its teeming members on how not to contact the deadly Ebola virus.

The Lagos State Commissioner for Health, Dr. Jide Idris, who led the delegation, said it was also to make sure that no victim of the virus came into the church from any of the affected countries.


Idris said, “We have our strategies that we intend to share with you. Again, we need to know the resources you have here because whether it is one or two cases, if they are allowed to get out, it is a major problem. We are here to work together on how to contain this disease.”

Idris said the delegation decided to pay the visit to the SCOAN because of the recognition that it was an international Christian Centre whose congregation comprises people from all over the world, including the countries of the West African sub-Region which had already been infected by the Ebola disease.

The Director, Centre for Disease Control, Professor Abdulsalami Nasidi, added that the visit was also to inform the Synagogue leader of the danger of the Ebola Virus, and ensure that it does not take over Nigeria.

In a swift reaction, Prophet Joshua promised to work with the government.

He promised to suspend some of his major Church healing programmes for a few weeks, adding that “I am ready to work with you. I love my country and I will be ready to work with you. Even if it is a rumour, there is need to secure our environment to ensure that it is safe.”
