The Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) on Friday buried the remains of its founder Prophet T. B. Joshua at the church premises in Ikotun, Lagos.
Joshua died after a church service at SCOAN on June 5. He was aged 57.
Individuals from different races, cultures and countries gathered to give final respect to the late prophet.
Before the interment of the late prophet, his burial service was held and Bible passages read.
Ondo State Governor Rotimi Akeredolu was among guests at the funeral service. Joshua was a native of Arigidi, Ondo State.
In his speech, Akeredolu described the death of Joshua as a huge loss to the people of Ondo State, Nigeria and the world at large.
Akeredolu said that Joshua contributed immensely to the emancipation of the downtrodden, orphans, widows and other less privileged people.
He said that the late prophet touched the lives of many people economically and spiritually.
“He was not born with a silver spoon but from what I heard, he was a special child because he performed miracles even from primary school.
“He was born with a special gift, and his love was not only for the less privileged. Even those of us who are privileged benefitted from his love,” Akeredolu said.
