Former Aviation Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode has mourned the demise of his friend and Founder of Synagogue Church Of All Nations (SCOAN), Prophet TB Joshua.
The Herald had reported, quoting Peoples Gazette, that TB Joshua passed away on Saturday evening after concluding a programme at his Lagos-based church on Saturday evening.
The ex-minister had initially dismissed the report as fake news.
Fani-Kayode wrote, “The passing of my dearest brother Prophet TB Joshua saddens me deeply. At 3.00 am this morning I was told by one of his daughters that this was fake news and I tweeted as much.
“Sadly I was misled. Five minutes ago the same person called me back and confirmed the story. @GazetteNGR was right and I am in shock and pain.

“The Bible says “to live is Christ and to die is gain”. It says “O grave where is thy power? O death, where is thy sting?”

“I shall miss you.”
