How my husband died – TB Joshua’s wife reveals

Evelyn Joshua, wife of the late TB Joshua, founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), has shared details of how her husband died.

TB Joshua died on Saturday after one of his evening services. He had suffered a stroke just two months ago.

The deceased clergyman, though controversial, was adored by many including politicians and presidents.

Speaking with journalists on Sunday, Evelyn reportedly said her husband had prayed for three hours before the last service on the mountain and that he showed no sign of illness.

She said he was concerned about prayers for Indians against the COVID-19 pandemic.

Evelyn also took to social media to express her feelings over the loss of her husband.

In a post on Twitter, she said: “Losing a loved one is never easy; whether sudden or foreseen. It is always heart-breaking. Grief can wreak havoc on our overall well-being. That’s why it’s important to stay rooted to the Almighty. Only He can lessen our heartache and comfort us in these times. Seek refuge in him.”

The couple were married in 1990 and have three children together.

She added: “Afterward, he came up to shower and I left him to have some time to prepare for service as worship had started.

“Few minutes later, he stepped out for ministration.

“While ministering, he spoke about a time to come and time to leave.

“His statements were spiritual and suddenly he left the stage and went to his inner chambers.

“I waited a few minutes and thereafter decided to check on him.

“I met him sitting on the chair like someone reflecting but unconscious.

“I quickly beckoned on his disciples who came and tried to revive him to no avail.

“Of a truth, he went home to be with the Lord and left us with a message: ‘Watch and pray.’”
