SCOAN fire incident: Synagogue church reacts

Synagogue Church of All Nation (SCOAN) has reacted to the fire outbreak at the old site of the church, located at Agodo, Egbe; about two kilometers from SCOAN headquarters cathedral in Ikotun, Lagos.

A statement from the church Thursday noted that the fire outbreak was from a general purpose store at the old site and has been successfully put out through the efforts of the ministry’s emergency response team, with no injuries whatsoever and no lives lost.

“Currently, the cause of the fire is unknown. To this end, we wish to assure our esteemed members, partners and friends of the ministry that we are on top of the situation. There is no need for panic and unnecessary speculations,” the statement reads.

“As sons and daughters of love, we shall continually uphold the assurances of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who has conquered the world for our sakes.

“Please, disregard any alarmist news aimed at creating panic amongst the church members in particular and the general public. We are no longer slaves to fear. We are children of God. Emmanuel!,” SCOAN Management stated.

Since 5 June, 2021 when the Founder of Synagogue Church of All Nations, Prophet T.B. Joshua, died, activities have been at the lowest ebb both at the headquarters and the old sites.
Mrs. Evelyn Joshua, the late Prophet Joshua’s widow, has since been in-charge of coordinating the affairs of the church.
