Actor Jim Iyke has once again opened up again on his encounter with Prophet TB Joshua, founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN).
A video of the actor purportedly undergoing deliverance at the church and confessing that an evil spirit was tormenting his life went viral in 2013 after his visit to Joshua.
Speaking in a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Jim said he went to the late televangelist because of his mum’s illness and what transpired at SCOAN was no publicity stunt.
According to the 45-year-old, a senator friend suggested he should take his mum to the Synagogue church after trying orthodox medical treatment.
The Bad Comments actor to Chude “I refused but the pressure was too much, so I said ‘okay I want to go, if they will save her, I will go.’
“We put her in a hospital close to there. I went there, there was a presidential suite I was accorded. When I went there, I was like ‘okay, let’s get started.’
“They said I must come down to the service. I said, ‘I don’t have to come down to the service, you people promised to heal her, does God need me to?’
“I said ‘I will live in this church for two years if you heal my mum.’ So after a while, they had a meeting and said, ‘You need to come down.’
“I remember I was there; my sister was behind me when this guy came and was doing stuff. When he crossed me, I chuckled. Then he came back to me. My brother, I don’t know what happened after that.
“This world is deep, there’s a spiritual something I’ve come to notice about this world that is way beyond us. What happened I don’t know, I saw the video and said that’s not me but that was me.”
Jim’s mother died on April 1, 2014.
Joshua died on June 5, 2021.
