The Leadership of the Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) on Sunday denied that the church was involved in the purported arrest and detention of some disciples in the church.
It said that it was not true as was reported in the social media that the newly appointed SCOAN Board of Trustees (BOT) Chairperson and Leader of the Church, Mrs. Evelyn T. B. Joshua was responsible.
In a statement by the church and signed by James Akhigbe ESQ., SCOAN Legal Department said the “attention of the Leadership of the Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has been called to the news on social media about the purported arrest and detention of some disciples by the new Board of Trustees (BoT) Chairperson and Leader of the Church, Mrs. Evelyn T. B. Joshua.
“We urge the general public and the teeming friends of the church to discountenance such reports as it is a narrative conjured by detractors to discredit the church.
“We stand in the light and we cannot compromise the ideal and legacy of our mentor and founder, late Senior Prophet TB Joshua on integrity, spiritual worship, unconditional love, and humanitarianism,” the statement continued.
It would be recalled that on the 9th of September, 2021, the Board Of Trustees BOT of the SCOAN appointed Mrs. Evelyn T. B. Joshua as its Chairperson following an order of the Federal High Court in Suit No. FHC/L/CP/1109/2021 appointed Mrs. Evelyn T. B. Joshua as a Trustee.
It was learnt that the BOT had also appointed Mrs. TB Joshua as the new leader of the Church with ratification by over two thousand strong jubilant congregations of the Church at a meeting on Thursday afternoon.
Akhigbe further added that “Following this, and in view of the discovery of huge cases of financial misappropriation perpetrated in the past few months, reckless individualism and unimaginable acts grossly antipodal to the Sanctuary with the passing of the founder, the church leadership took steps to secure certain critical assets of the Church with an authorization for a comprehensive audit of the activities of the Church since the call to the glory of our Founder and General Overseer in the interest of the global church members and future of the church.
“This exercise involved some category of church workers including Disciples and it is being carried out objectively under a regular and absolutely normal environment without any harassment whatsoever to any person or group of persons, contrary to the disingenuous narrative now being peddled by mischief makers,” he reiterated in the statement.
However, he called on members of the public to disregard such reports and continue to support SCOAN in prayers as it commences this new phase in the life of the Ministry.
Emmanuel!
