Nobody Has Been Trained To Take Over From TB JOSHUA - Close Aid

A top aide who worked closely with the late TB Joshua but instructed not to be quoted had said that the everyone is confused in the church right now as nobody expected this sudden death.

“For successor, he did not train anyone to succeed him. I am not aware of any succession plan in this church. There is none of the pastors that have been trained to succeed him. I would have known if any exists.

“But to the best of my knowledge, nobody in this church has been trained to succeed him, not even the 5 wisemen” he stated.

The inside source was asked if the entire SCOAN can operate without a substantive leader, he said “Very likely. That is what is going to happen. His shoes are very large. If there has been anybody that he earmarked to succeed him, we would have long noticed it in the church here.

“The person’s activities, actions and inactions would have indicated the direction of succession. After all, I am an inner member of his caucus.

“For now, the wife has taken charge. There are instructions on what to do and how things would go. In all of this, no service is in the programme. Services have been suspended,” he disclosed.
