According to a report in Nigeria’s Nation Newspaper, Nigerian
Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, has
entreated controversial Prophet T.B. Joshua to rescind his
decision to leave Nigeria.
“That will be very unfortunate in the sense that if he
does move out, it will affect our tourism in Nigeria.”
Mohammed told journalists at the Annual General Meeting of
the Nigerian Association of Tour Operators (NATOP), held in
the Renaissance Hotel in Ikeja, Lagos.
“Pastor Joshua is an important person; he must bear
with us,” the outspoken Minister admitted to
newsmen at the event which hosted top dignitaries
within the tourism sector.
“This is his country. If he moves out and goes to
South Africa (for example), the revenue will go to
South Africa.”
Mohammed said he would be reaching out to the cleric to
voice his concerns, adding that the Nigerian government was
ready to dialogue with Joshua to address the challenges
faced by The SCOAN.
“It is better that Pastor Joshua sits down with the relevant
authorities and resolves whatever problems he has,” the
Minister concluded. Mohammed’s statements are the first
public acknowledgement by the Nigerian government of
Joshua’s economic and social impact on the country in terms
of religious tourism.
The Synagogue founder said during a church service on
March 30 that he had been invited by three prominent Israeli
mayors to hold meetings with international pilgrims close to
the Biblical site of the Sea of Galilee.
