A group of elders of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), has unveil the identity of the next General Overseer of the megachurch following the death of its founder, Temitope Joshua.

The church elders declared the deceased pastor’s wife, Evelyn Joshua, as his successor and one who will now oversee the affairs of the church.

A source who’s familiar with happenings in the church inner circle had said that Mrs Joshua was likely to emerge as the leader of the church, as she has been serving as the second-in-command and the evangelists who have been ministering before Mr Joshua’s Death.

According to the source, she will continue with miracles and prophecies that are the vital component of her husband’s spiritual elements.

Giving reason to the choice of Mrs Joshua as successor, a top aide of the late pastor said none of the pastors were trained to succeed him.

“None of the pastors were trained to succeed him. I would have known if any existed. For now, the wife has taken charge,” he said, “Someone must take charge immediately and give spiritual direction on the mode of service continuity. So much spiritual and financial efforts went into building SCOAN and it cannot just waste away.’’ The source told peoples gazette.
