As worship centres are set to open their doors to congregants on Sunday, the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) in Lagos has said it won’t resume for the Sunday worship until it hears from God.
The Founder, Prophet Temitope Joshua in a telecast said: “Following the announcement that church services would resume on Sunday, August 9 in Lagos, I wish to commend the authorities for their efforts so far.
“However, having heard from the authorities, we are now waiting to hear from God. Please be assured that as soon as we hear from God, we will inform you when our services will resume. Emmanuel – God is with us.”
Following the global outbreak of the Coronavirus pandemic, which has so far killed over 701,000 people across the world, the Federal Government of Nigeria placed a ban on all religious centres – Churches and Mosques – to check the spread of Covid-19 pandemic.
As the spike has gradually gotten to its apogee and citizens agitations to return to the status quo is high, government at different states of the federation begun a process of easing the lockdown hence the Federal government has given its olive branch to states to begin a partial relaxation of lockdown but maintain observable regulations in line with NCDC guidelines.
Lagos State recorded the first case of Coronavirus on the 27th February, 2020 after the virus broke out in Wuham China in January 2020.
Since an Italian imported the virus into the country from Milan on the 25th February, Lagos State has become the epicentre of the virus in Nigeria, with over 15,355 cases out of the over 44,433 confirmed cases in Nigeria.
