The widow of Late prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua of the Synagogue of All Nations, Evangelist Evelyn Joshua has been in a logger head with some members of the church over leadership and power tussle.
Speaking to City Express News at the Ikotun based headquarters of the church during the week, She said God of Prophet Joshua will avenge for her. A Federal High Court in Lagos has appointed Evangelist Evelyn Joshua as a trustee of the church, in line with the Church,s constitution which prescribes minimum of three trustees for the church.
Justice Tijani Ringim gave judgement appointing Evangelist Joshua as a trustee of the church, as Late T.B. Joshua did not do before his unexpected death.
This followed a petition brought by concerned and committed church, represented by Mr. Kola Kareem and Mrs. Moji Oguntoyinbo, respondents in the action by the plaintiffs in suit FHC1CP1109/2021.
The petitioners were represented by Emeka Ekweozor and Chris Eme Ossazu Ovie represented 1st and 2nd respondents, while O.N. Chukwu appeared for the C.A.C. The respondents through their counsel did not oppose the petition brought and made under section 839(b) on the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) 2020 as amended.
The Church has been in limbo since the death of Prophet T.B. Joshua over the leadership succession in the church. Some foreign Apostles and Emmanuel TV partners are planning to take over the leadership from Evangelist Evelyn Joshua. Meanwhile Evangelist Evelyn Joshua has pledged to proclaim and preach the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ in her capacity as the new head of the church.
“I humbly step into the shoes of my beloved husband to head the great Synagogue church for the betterment of the large followers of prophet T.B. Joshua”.
She said Prophet T.B. Joshua has instructed her in a dream to pray and hear from God before climbing the pulpit to preach the message to the congregation.
The thing of Holy Sprit is not of man. According to her “Prophet T.B. Joshua is not dead but alive. ” Anybody fighting over the properties of Synagogue Church of All Nations will be disgraced by the Holy Sprit, What is happening in the Church today has been revealed to me by the Man in the Synagogue, Prophet Joshua through dreams.”.
She said the Mantle of Power and Leadership has been giving to her after she visited a prayer mountain to seek the face of God, where the Holy Spirit led her to the grave of her late husband, and spritually, she was giving the Bible to preach the gospel. ” The struggle by T.B. Joshua shall not end in crises because God is with me and the Synagogue of All Nations.”

Thank God, His judgement will begin in his house. While must Evelyn waits for dreams before doing the work of God. Also noted, the church is not family business. She should humble herself and allow whosoever has God's call to lead. Comr. Robert Okpako
