COVID-19: Prophet TB Joshua Salutes Gov. Sanwo-Olu On Response

 

The founder of The Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), Prophet TB Joshua has hailed Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos state for his compassion during this Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) "critical time".

AllNews reports that Joshua likened Sanwo-Olu to Andrew Cuomo, the governor of New York in USA.

'YouTube's most popular pastor' via his official Twitter page on Sunday prayed to God to increase the governor's capacity to do more.

 

We would like to use this time to salute our governor of Lagos State, Governor @jidesanwoolu . If you look at his activity at this critical time, it can be compared to the New York governor who is always on the national news to update the general public and to educate them.

Our governor wants to see his people and he wants to see them living well. We pray God will increase his capacity to do more, in Jesus’ name!

Some social commentators say the performance of Sanwo-Olu in leading the COVID-19 response has cancelled out what began as spotty leadership of Nigeria’s economic capital and today, amid vacuous leadership at the centre, he is emerging a shining light.
