Members had gathered for a candlelight procession at the church’s prayer mountain on the church’s premises to mourn the late founder, Prophet Temitope Joshua, who died on June 5, at the age of 57.
Reacting to the incident, the church in a statement, explained that it was a minor electrical fire at a store house within the complex.

The church thanked God for His protection and assured the public that there is no cause for alarm.
“The services celebrating the life and legacy of Prophet TB Joshua will continue as scheduled”, SCOAN assured.
The statement concluded with one of the deceased’s quotes: “Nothing outside God’s control can happen to His children.”
