Award-winning broadcaster, journalist, columnist and blogger Funmi Iyanda who produced and hosted Nigeria’s authoritative talk show ‘New Dawn with Funmi’, which spanned a period of eight years, took to twitter, to let her followers know about her first ever encounter with the Head Pastor and founder of The Synagogue, Church of All Nations(SCOAN), Pastor T.B Joshua when she was just 25.
Had 2 encounters with pastor Joshua. In 1997 I had a 2 hour interview with him and church members, the tape "disappeared" in our office.

In 2006 I met him at new synagogue, he asked what l thought of the church. I said it was nice but wasn't it more important to build people?

At each encounter he said my "spirit" was rather strong. I took it as a complement.

I had asked him about building people not houses because everyone l saw at the church looked lost. To his credit, he remained courteous.

I have interviewed or had close conversations with most of Nigeria's top pastors. I don't agree with most but none was dislikable close up.

As per the disappeared tape, someone in his congregation close to the staff probably stole it. Hours of prime sparring. I was 25.
