Joshua said: “As things stand, you may have realised it will not be easy for me to celebrate my birthday under the present circumstances”. Could the televangelist have known the end was near when he dropped the message? The cleric, however, told his followers to dedicate the day to prayer and fasting and to not also forget the needy.
