Pastor Temitope Joshua,the late founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations may be buried on July 9, 2021 on the premises of his church in Lagos State.

Late TB Joshua died at the age of 57 last week in Lagos.

Informations has it that the date was fixed after the immediate and extended members of the family of TB Joshua met at the residence of the deceased in Lagos State on Friday.

The information also revealed that family decision might be a little bit different from 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.

The traditional rulers had already clamoured that the late cleric be buried in his home town for burial which is believed could further give the town global recognition as the deceased’s worshippers all over the world would want to visit it to see his tomb and would also make the church to continue the project already embarked upon by the late founder.

But the family member said the wife, Evelyn, and the children of the late cleric prevailed on the other family members over the burial place and date at the meeting.

The burial arrangement has been scheduled to take place between July 5 and July 9, 2021.

Information has it that the extended family members comprising of late t.b Joshua’s wife and children held a meeting on Friday where it was decided that he should be buried in Lagos and the burial programme 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.”

The decision of the family was however not okay with leaders of Akoko Land in Ondo State as they believe ongoing project left behind in Arigidi Akoko by the late pastor might be abandoned.
