The Lagos State Government led by the State
Commissioner for Health, Dr. Jide Idris,
visited Pastor TB.Joshua's Synagogue to advise
them against opening their doors to people
from West African countries with the dreaded
Ebola disease. Idris said:
“We have our strategies that we intend
to share with you. Again, we need to
know the resources you have here
because whether it is one or two cases,
if they are allowed to get out, it is a
major problem. We are here to work
together on how to contain this disease.”
Another member of the delegation and
Director, Centre for Disease Control (CDC),
Professor Abdulsalami Nasidi said:
We are here to engage you positively, we
know the powers of this House and your
powers and we are duty- bound to
protect you and your congregation. We
have no doubt the power God has given
you, we cant do that, but we want to
help and make it work stronger
Prophet TB Joshua reacting to their visit
promised to work with government by
suspending most of his major church healing
programs and also said, he would visit those
countries than allow their residents come to
Nigeria
“I am ready to work with you. I love my
country and I will be ready to work with
you. Even if it is a rumour, there is need
to secure our environment to ensure that
it is safe.”
