T. B. Joshua did not Bribe Journalists

After listening over and over to the ‘audio proof’ file shared on social media by a journalist, Nicholas Ibekwe, I came to a simple conclusion that the Man Of God (M.O.G.), Prophet T. B. Joshua, did not bribe those journalists.

My take on this is that the journalist was merely out to drag the name of the M.O.G. in the mud- or just to make a name for himself. If he was in pursuit of the latter, then I beg to say that he had chosen the wrong way to do such. And if he was in pursuit of the former, then I fully conclude that he had actually dragged the name of God in the mud- there is always a reward for every of our actions.

For those who have things against Prophet T. B. Joshua, the transcribed version of his voice at the opening of the audio file is given below:

‘I want to thank you very much for your patience, and for your time. In fact, when they finish talking to you now, you’ll see, I want you to just pass through almost 2000 people I’ve been attending to. They are from all over the world. There are no, no single Nigerian.

Been attending to them. I’m attending to them (clears throat). So, I asked them to you give a copy of the cassette. So, and em... seven-fifty thousand for fuel, to buy fuel into your car.

Seven-fifty thousand. I think you have it here? So, you hand over to them. So, and em... the cassette. They need one, one cassette.’

From the above excerpts, nothing paints the picture of bribery in the gesture of the M.O.G. Christians are taught to appreciate diligence in discharge of duties. And in my opinion, that was the gesture of Prophet T. B. Joshua.

Before readers will jump into conclusions, let me state that I am not a member of the SCOAN. I am only making known my view about the action of the journalist, Nicholas Ibekwe.

In his article, ‘Synagogue Building Collapse: Why I exposed T. B. Joshua for bribing Journalists,’ Nicholas Ibekwe bragged about getting over 2000 followers on twitter as a result of the ‘audio proof file’  he shared on social media. I see this statement as one coming from a mind occupied by colossal ignorance- it would have been better not to respond to people’s reactions to the audio proof file.

I wouldn’t want to be too biblical here, but let me end by saying that God warned us not to touch His anointed and to do His Prophets no harm- either real or fake in your opinion, your duty is to allow God deal with His anointed and Prophets himself.

Nicholas Ibekwe should humbly go to God for forgiveness- He has the power to come down on you with His wrath for defying His instructions and dragging the name of His Prophet in the mud because of fame!
