Why TB Joshua will be missed – Buhari

PRESIDENT Buhari has condoled with the family and members of the Synagogue Church of All Nations, SCOAN, on the death of Prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua aka TB Joshua.

In the condolence message contained in a statement last night by his Senior Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, the president said, “the renowned televangelist will be missed by his followers all over the world not only for his spiritual contributions but for touching many lives through philanthropic gestures.”

The statement continued, “President Buhari urges Pastor Joshua’s followers to take solace in the knowledge that life is not measured and defined by chronological longevity but by enduring legacies and lives touched positively.

“He also condoles with the government and people of Ondo State and prays that God Almighty will accept the soul of the departed pastor.”

T. B. Joshua, as he was known, died at the age of 57 on Saturday after a church programme in Lagos. He would have clocked 58 on June 12
