Cape Town – Mourners have allegedly vomited blood and other poisonous substances at the week-long funeral service of Nigerian pastor and televangelist TB Joshua as he lies in state at his church, The Synagogue, Church of all Nations (SCOAN) in Lagos.

A tweet posted by the church on Thursday afternoon reads: “Further manifestation of God’s power at the lying-in-state programme for Prophet T.B.
