A picture of controversial Pastor T.B. Joshua carrying three bags of
rice went viral this week within Nigerian social media and blogs. While
most commended Joshua for his humility and humanity, there were
suggestions that the picture was ‘photo-shopped’. Others insinuated the
image was nothing but a tasteless publicity stunt in the light of the
recent tragedy that befell The SCOAN where over 100 died in a building
collapse.
As a viewer of Emmanuel TV, I have actually seen the video clip of this
particular humanitarian mission previously and managed to find the
footage on YouTube. For clarification, this did not take place
after the tragedy last month, putting to rest the allegation that this
was an ill-timed publicity feat.
