Some have called it reincarnation and others have said it is mere coincidence, as Sarah Joshua, one of the daughters of the late Prophet TB Joshua, Founder of Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) has welcomed a baby boy on her late father’s birthday.
The new addition to the Joshua family came on Saturday, 12th;June 2021, when the late Prophet would have turned 58 years old.
This comes merely a week after news of the death of the late SCOAN;founder shocked the world on June 6, few days to his 58th birthday.
That notwithstanding, it can be recalled that Sarah Joshua recently;tied the knot with her Tanzanian husband Brian Moshi for the third time, on Saturday, 8th May 2021, at a;Catholic Church in Nigeria, followed by a grand ceremony held at the Arusha International Conference Center (AICC).

Burial date for TB Joshua announced
That aside, Prophet TB Joshua’s burial date has been revealed. According to sources, T.B. Joshua may be buried between July 5 and July 9, 2021, at the church’s premises in Lagos State.
A member of the family disclosed that the date of his burial was arrived at a meeting held at Joshua’s residence.
“The extended family members, his (Joshua) wife, and children held a meeting and it was decided that he should be buried in Lagos and the burial program will be between July 5 and 9.
“It was on the insistence of the wife and the children that the other family members agree on the place of burial because they said they saw revelations that he should be buried in Lagos. Since they said it was spiritual, the family agreed with them.”
Meanwhile, the decision is contrary to the expectation of the monarch of Arigidi Akoko, Oba Yisa Olanipekun, and some other traditional rulers in the Akoko area, who wanted the late pastor buried in his hometown, Arigidi Akoko.
One of the community leaders in Akokoland, Ladi Bello, pleaded that the ongoing project left behind in Arigidi Akoko by the late pastor should not be abandoned.
Meanwhile, the church did not hold any of its three services on Sunday as the church remained shut since TB Joshua’s death on June 5.
