Iexclusive News reports that on Monday, July 5, 2021, a fire broke out in the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) headquarters.

Thousands of followers attended the ceremony that started with “three meditative laps of The SCOAN Prayer Mountain in honour of the memory of Prophet T.B. Joshua.”

Afterwards, members gathered at “the Junction of the Cross” to drop their burning candles.

At after 11 p.m., after the candlelight ceremony, a fire broke out in the SCOAN complex’s warehouse.

The church verified the event on Facebook, claiming that it was caused by an electrical issue that was promptly resolved before officials from the Lagos State Fire Services arrived.

The following is a copy of the official statement that was released on Facebook:

In the late evening of Monday 5th July 2021, there was a minor electrical fire incident at a store house within The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) complex. The incident was quickly brought under control without any injuries.
