SCOAN Ghana Banned From Location



A strict order has been given to the authorities of the T.B Joshua led Synagogue Church of all Nations, SCOAN by the Greater Accra Regional Police Commander, DCOP Christian Tettey Yehonu to quit hosting revivals at their Spintex auditorium in Accra due to the recently stampede in the church that claimed about four lives and left many seriously injured.
The stampede occurred as people struggled to secure better positions to receive holy water blessed by the Presiding Prophet, T.B Joshua.
DCOP Yehonu noted that the stampede that occurred at the weekend could have been avoided if the church had chosen a bigger venue to hold its events.
The police chief explained that “the place is too small to manage a congregation of that magnitude.”
He however suggested that the Accra Sports Stadium or the independence square were more suitable alternatives to handle a crowd of that magnitude and should be considered for use.
Meanwhile, officials of the Church who said it was the first time people died in any of their services worldwide, noted that they did all in their power to save the situation.
Reverend Sam Mc-Canan, a Reverend at the Synagogue Church of all Nations in Accra said, “What happened at Spintex is unprecedented, we are used to crowds and huge number,s but not something like this. We are a crowd puller, but we are not use to a number like this. This is the first of its kind, and we are very devastated about this.
“We are going to do a thorough work to ensure this does not repeat itself. Everything started orderly this morning, until 30 minutes when we heard a stampede outside the office.
“We went outside then saw some casualties lying outside there, and others trampled over. We cancelled the meeting and called the national ambulance to intervene.”

Snoop Lion Excommunicated From The Rastafari Community

Snoop Lion excommunicated from the Rastafari Community, according to Bunny Wailer! Bunny has always had his doubts about  Snoop Lion ‘s intent and now his skepticism has taken an even stronger stance, that of excommunication. The news was broken via his  Facebook  profile and via  press release . Recently Snoop Lion has struggled to convince the Rastafari and Reggae community that he is sincere about his profession of, and transition to the faith, principles and beliefs of Rastafari. Most doubtful is Bunny Wailer the only living member of the original Wailer. ‘ Excommunication is a religious censure used to deprive, suspend, or limit membership in a religious community or to restrict certain rights within it. Some groups use the term disfellowship instead, ‘ stated Bunny’s official release. With that said, this would surely deprive Snoop Lion from direct contact to some elders within the Rastafarian community also, access to vital information and place of wo...
