The
founder and General Overseer of The Synagogue Church Of All Nations
(SCOAN) in Lagos, has on Sunday, splashed millions of Naira to a
12-year-old-boy who armed robbers mercilessly slaughtered his mother and
younger sister before his eyes.
The miracle survivor
Tears flowed freely at The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN)
in Lagos, on Sunday 12th February 2017 following the emotional
testimony of Praise Sunday, a young boy literally rescued from the jaws
of death.
At the tender age of 12, Praise’s world came crashing down when
armed robbers mercilessly slaughtered his mother and younger sister
before his eyes. The heartless attack, which occurred on May 8th 2016,
almost claimed Praise’s life but for ‘Divine intervention’
According to the young boy from Agbor, Delta State, the bandits
first bound their feet and hands before demanding for money from his mum
Edith, a widower struggling to run a small provisions store.
When the meagre amount available in the house was presented without
an accompanying bank card, the thieves became vulgar and violent. “They took my sister inside the room, cut her neck and left her dead on the floor.”
Praise soberly recalled, much to the shock of the congregation. She was only 10 years old. “They then carried my mum, raped her and slaughtered her; they stabbed her in so many places.”
The young boy had just witnessed the gruesome mutilation of his beloved family - but the robbers weren’t finished. “They
left her dead on the floor and came back for me. They took me into the
room where I saw my mum and sister lying in a pool of blood. They then
cut my neck and stabbed me in the chest.”
Praise was thrown roughly on the floor as the criminals took their leave, assuming he had already died.
Hands and feet helplessly tied with blood spurting from the gaping
wound on his neck, it seemed the end had come for Praise Sunday. Then,
something extraordinary happened!
“I managed to open my eyes and saw something white, sparkling
and tall like a human being. It carried me, took me to my neighbor’s
gate, shook it and then disappeared.”
When his neighbour’s rushed out, they found Praise’s bloodied body
dumped at their doorstep, his arms and legs bound together. Raising the
alarm, they rushed him to hospital.
Lapsing in and out of consciousness and fighting for his life,
Praise was taken to the General Hospital in Agbor before being
transferred to the Federal Medical Centre. “Blood was pumping out like a shower; they could not control it,” he recalled of the traumatic ordeal.
Although Praise miraculously survived the attack following emergency surgery and the usage of "T.B. Joshua’s Morning Water",
he was left with his vocal chords severely damaged and a pipe inserted
into his throat. For nine long months, he could not utter a single word.
After seven operations at medical institutions across the country
yielding no result and several pleas for financial aid to government
bodies within Delta State falling on seemingly deaf ears, the family
decided to pay a visit to The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN)
in Lagos.
Hearing of his heartbreaking ordeal, T.B. Joshua – well known for
his philanthropic gestures – instantly sprang into action, promising to
sponsor Praise’s travel overseas for more advanced medical attention.
Shortly afterwards, the young boy left for Cape Town, South Africa with his caring aunt Mabel, “all expenses paid for by Prophet T.B. Joshua and Emmanuel TV partners”.
There, a four-hour major operation was conducted at Life Vincent
Pallotti Hospital in Cape Town, overseen by specialists Dr Martin
Vanlierde and Professor Mark De Groot.
Given a clean bill of health after several months of check-ups,
Praise returned to Nigeria to testify that his vocal abilities had been
completely restored.
A total of $50,000 (N25m) was spent by Joshua on Praise’s trip, covering his welfare, travelling expenses and medical bills.
Surrounded by his extended family and grateful community members, Praise’s final words spoke volumes. “I
encourage the rich and privileged in society to emulate Prophet T.B.
Joshua and help poor people like me. Then, Nigeria would be a much
better place for us all.”
