Nigerian blog TheCabel, reports that Prophet TB Joshua, who died on Saturday, June 5, 2021, suffered a stroke two months ago, and was sent out of the country to undergo treatment.
The blog added that TB Joshua was airlifted via an air ambulance from Nigeria to Turkey to receive treatment. He recently returned to Nigeria after treatment.
Nonetheless, the cause of the preacher’s death is yet to be known officially as no connection has been established between the said condition and his sudden death.
TB Joshua died at age 57, exactly a week to his 58th birthday, which he has spoken of in great anticipation of the celebration by way of prayer, fasting and remembrance of the needy.
An official statement from his church, the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) said Mr. Joshua spent his last days in the service of God and left behind a legacy of service and sacrifice to God’s kingdom.
The statement read:
“God has taken His servant Prophet TB Joshua home – as it should be by divine will. His last moments on earth were spent in the service of God. This is what he was born for, lived for and died for… Prophet TB Joshua leaves a legacy of service and sacrifice to God’s Kingdom that is living for generations yet unborn.”
TB Joshua’s Ministry is globally recognized through his television platform, Emmanuel TV, run by the church as one of Nigeria’s biggest Christian broadcast stations available worldwide on digital and terrestrial switches.
