The pastor of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), Temitope Babatunde Joshua has explained why his prophecy on the presidential election in the United States was wrong.

In a 23-minute video (the explanation begins at the 15th minute) shared by the ministry’s YouTube channel, Emmanuel TV, Joshua said the prophecy was “changed” due to the prayers of Christians around the world.

Joshua read email correspondence he received from Americans thanking him for warning them through the prophecy.

They likened his prophecy to that of Jonah in the Bible whose prophecy against the city of Nineveh caused them to go into a 40-day fast, which led God to change his mind.
