Morgan Tsvangirai In Nigeria, Visits T.B.

Joshua
ZIMBABWE Prime Minister Morgan Richard Tsvangirai is in Nigeria to seek
spiritual help at The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN), a competent
source told Africa News on Thursday.

The leader of the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) arrived in Lagos, the
country’s commercial hub on
Wednesday evening with some of his
family members and security details.

The Prime Minister, who has been in a


power tussle with President Robert
Gabriel Mugabe, is visiting the church
to seek spiritual help ahead of the
Presidential election in Zimbabwe.

“Just like the President of Ghana who


came to Synagogue Church to seek
the face of God during the election in
his country, the Zimbabwe Prime
Minister is also at the Synagogue
Church to seek the face of God,” the
source said. “As you know the
Synagogue Church is a place of refuge
for presidents and African nations in times of trouble, especially troubling elections.”

Tsvangirai, who rose from working in a mine to


worldwide prominence as a symbol of resistance to
repression in Zimbabwe, became Prime Minister in
2009 following a historic power-sharing deal with
long-serving leader Robert Mugabe.

Tsvangarai joins a growing list of African leaders


who have visited The SCOAN for spiritual
assistance. In 2008, the President of Ghana, John
Atta Mills, came to The Synagogue, Church to seek
the face of God during the election in his country.

He said in a thanksgiving service following his


inauguration that T.B. Joshua had prophesied his
victory in the Ghanaian polls, specifying there
would be three elections and the results would be
released in January. Mills has described Joshua as
his mentor.

Former Zambian President Frederick Chiluba also


visited The SCOAN while in power, as well as the
late leader of Gabon, Omar Bongo. The Zu lu King,
Goodwill Zwelithini kaBhekuzulu, came to The SCOAN to testify to his daughter’s healing
from epilepsy.

Pascal Lissouba and Andre Kolimba, the former Presidents of Congo and Central African
Republic, are among other African leaders to have visited the church.

Prophet T.B. Joshua sparked media in terest in Zimbabwe after Mr. Cuthbert Dube, the
President of the Zimbabwe Football Assocation (ZIFA), returned from The SCOAN
testifying to being healed from a debilitating sickness that left him dependent on a
wheelchair.

Famed for his extensive charitable activities and accurate prophetic utterances, the
prophet is well known in Africa, largely due to the popularity of his Christian television
station, Emmanuel TV.
