Daniel Emelandu, a former wiseman of Prophet TB Joshua, founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), on Wednesday, February 9 clocked 49.
Wiseman Daniel, as he is known for short, had since left the megachurch to found The Everlasting Light of Hope International Ministry (The ELOHIM).
The clergyman posted birthday wishes from friends and followers on his social media pages.
Daniel had said in an Instagram post on Tuesday, February 9 that he had been on the SCOAN prayer mountain built by Joshua since Sunday, February 6, praying and thanking God for his new age.
Another former wiseman at SCOAN, Apostle John Chi, described Daniel in an Instagram post as a “special blessing to the body of Christ.”
“May you be gifted with life’s biggest joys and never-ending bliss. After all, you yourself are a gift to earth, so you deserve the best. Happy birthday once again. We love you,” he wrote.
Frank Logan and his wife Shade, disciples of the late Joshua, sent early birthday wishes to Daniel.
Daniel posted a video of their felicitations on social media with the caption: “Birthday wishes from Frank and Shade.”
Speaking about Daniel in the video, Frank said, “We’ve been through many different walks of life as we served diligently in the lord, at the Synagogue Church of All Nations. We’ve prayed together, we’ve laughed together, we’ve quarrelled and settled all to the glory of God.”
Frank also thanked Daniel for being a “true brother” especially when he was going through rough times last year.
He further highlighted the growth of Daniel’s ministry, saying: “…We are so happy to see all that God is doing to the Everlasting Light of Hope International Ministries (ELOHIM), in just two short years and we know that no matter what number we reach there is always another level to reach for. So may God continue to bless you and more grace in your new age.”
