TB Joshua dies at age 57
Prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua, popularly known as TB Joshua, a frontline preacher and televangelist, died on 6th June 2021, family sources say.
TB Joshua, the founder of The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN), died in Lagos on Saturday, 6th June evening after he concluded a programme at his church. The cause of death is not yet known but he wasn't reported sick. He was 57.
The cause of death was not immediately disclosed to The Gazette, but family sources said his remains had been deposited at the morgue and an autopsy would be performed forthwith.
Mr Joshua reigned for several decades as a fiery preacher on television, using his platform to attract a large number of Christians from across the world. Emmanuel TV, run by Mr Joshua’s SCOAN, is one of Nigeria’s largest Christian broadcast stations, available worldwide via digital and terrestrial switches.
In 2014, his church was at the centre of a multi-national investigation following a section of his church headquarters in Lagos collapsed, leaving dozens killed and many more injured.
Mr Joshua denied allegations of negligence and a trial over the incident was still underway prior to his demise.
