Evelyn Joshua, the wife of the late founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), Prophet Temitope Joshua, popularly known as T.B. Joshua, has reportedly emerged as the General Overseer (GO) of the church.

According to a report by the African News, the church authorities made the decision to appoint Evelyn as the successor of the televangelist, during a meeting.

“Someone must take charge immediately and give spiritual direction on the mode of service continuity. So much spiritual and financial efforts went into building SCOAN and it cannot just waste away,’’ African News quoted an insider as saying.

TB Joshua passed away on June 5, days before his birthday. Since the demise of the renowned cleric, there have been many debates regarding the successor of the church.

The televangelist during his lifetime performed many healing, miracles as well as philanthropic activities.

Evelyn got married to T.B Joshua in 1990 and is said to have been serving as the second in command to her husband all along. She has also been actively participating in the church activities. She gives sermon, and also offers counseling to the church members.

The couple were married for 31 years and had three children together.
