As international search continues for the missing Malaysian airplane,
a video of Nigerian controversial pastor, T.B. Joshua, purporting to
have predicted the plane’s disappearance has gone viral on YouTube.
By 10.a.m today, the video has already gotten more than 550,000 views from allo ver the world.
T.B. Joshua, pastor of The Synagogue Church Of All Nations (SCOAN), purportedly prophesied the incident on 28 July 2013.

However even Joshua’s staunchest defenders would admit the prophecy
is vague. The preacher talks simply of the event afflicting “an Asian
nation” without specifying which one, and says simply that an aircraft
will develop a fault, without giving any more details as to its causes,
symptoms or consequences.
The video has already racked up over
550,000 hits since it was uploaded on 8 March by Emmanuel TV – a
Christian television network founded by Joshua himself.
In the
clip, Joshua said: “We have to pray, this is an Asian country. I will
not mention any country but God showed me the country. I am seeing a
very big balloon.
“What is the cause of this? It was just about to
take off and the fault started. It means they can discover it on the
tarmac but because of impatience.”
“If God gives me the grace I will send a letter to the embassy of the country. Check your airlines in your country,” he warned.
“But
it’s going to be huge. Almost 200 people inside. What happened here is
the fault of impatience because there are many things they need to look
into before they take off but they are unable,” he continued.
Meanwhile, in a recent a Facebook post, Joshua claims that the plane has “crashed into sea.”
