UN Commends, Supports TB Joshua’s Job Creation Initiative
By Ihechukwu Njoku
On Sunday 7th July 2013, Nigerian Prophet T.B. Joshua received commendation from the International Labour Organisation (ILO), a United Nations specialised agency, praising his recent initiative targeting job creation for unemployed graduates and skills development.
Ms. Sinanzeni Chuma-Mkandawire, the Director of the ILO Country Office for Nigeria, Gambia, Ghana, Liberia and Sierra Leone, spoke to the thousands congregated at The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) in a message also beamed live to millions more via the church’s broadcast portal, Emmanuel TV.
“Youth and employment is a huge challenge that the world is facing today and we commend the efforts of the man of God Prophet T.B. Joshua, the Synagogue, Church Of All Nations and Emmanuel TV for championing a worldwide initiative on job creation,” Chuma-Mkandawire stated. “This challenge needs the concerted efforts of governments, the private sector, individuals, institutions and faith-based organisations.”
Giving a brief history of the ILO’s aims and activities, Chuma-Mkandawire highlighted that Joshua’s project was in consonance with their vision on skills development and job creation, also lauding his known stand of helping individuals, irrespective of their religious, ethnic or social background.
“My organisation is based on the respect for all people, all religions and all faiths. This is where there is a convergence with what is happening here today and we therefore join the efforts of Prophet T.B. Joshua, Emmanuel TV and all faith based organisations in the promotion and creation of jobs.” Chuma-Mkandawire stated that the first step of the partnership would be to create a website which would provide relevant information for job seekers, linking them to respective job opportunities.
The partnership comes in lieu of Joshua’s call last month on his 50th birthday for job creation to be prioritised in order to avert an impending economic crisis. The ILO whose motto is ‘promoting jobs, protecting people’ said they had been observing Joshua’s charitable endeavours for several years and were delighted to join him in partnership for the mutual benefit of young people seeking employment.
Joshua stated his passion to provide jobs for young people was driven by a vision of an imminent ‘revolution’ amidst the youth if actions were not quickly taken. “Revolution is coming if we do not act now,” Joshua soberly stated to the congregation. “The young ones will take to the streets because the so called legacy of education we give them will not have meaning. Unemployment has made education useless in the sense that the young ones see no meaning in going to school.”
He lamented that education had lost its value. “Each time those in university remember those who made a first class doing what they were not trained to do, it affects their morale. This has affected the value of education; graduates are now struggling with the uneducated for unskilled jobs,” the cleric commented.
A week earlier, Mrs Hannah Ms Hannah Bertillia Acquah, the West African representative for the MBA tour, also publicly commended Joshua’s initiative. The international event organised to link prospective students with top level business administrative educational institutions officially announced their partnership with Emmanuel TV in giving scholarships to enterprising African students, enabling them to study in some of the most prestigious educational institutions worldwide.
According to Nigeria’s Guardian newspaper, the project has already attracted huge national and international interest. “Thousands of organisations around the world have offered to partner with TB Joshua by providing job opportunities for Africans through the initiative. Hundreds of such letters were read at the event, with the organisations stating available vacancies in their establishment,” the newspaper reported on Sunday 30th June 2013.

@ King David so what should the Satanist TB Joshua do?
I think he should also encourage young people who need help to get access to good health treatment and not rely on “miracles”. UNAIDS states that outside South Africa, Nigeria has the highest number of people living with AIDS. He should also speak up against corruption and human rights abuses.

Inform your master Lucifer that you are too small for Prophet TB Joshua for he is highly anointed such that he makes your dark kingdom to shake. Wait, better is not good enough, the best is yet to come for the Prophet.

That is why you need to listen to T B Joshua. When he prays and delivers you, such stories will make you feel sorry for the ones involved in such and you wont enjoy hearing of anyone marrying a cow.

may i thank God for the prophet TB Joshua. may the Lord forgive all those working as agents of satan to acuse the man of God. Am in Zambia and T B Joshua;s work encourages me to be a christian, only the devilz rep can acuse the prophet to be a satanist. Man of God TB Joshua contine with your good work. We will not listen to those with nothing to offer apart from distruction. To God be the glory.

He is a real man of GOD. Highly anointed by JESUS HIMSELF. You’ll realize when it is too late what you missed. Man is fond of praising the limited powers of the devil, but when GOD provides what is HIS you start calling names. You sit wandering what is of man.

We have so many so called pastors in Zambia and we have never bothered to critically look at them but for TB Joshua he is in the open and we see what God does in his life. Many so called pastors in zambia should go back and look at their calling to see whether it is true they are called to the ministry. May God bless TB Joshua and his team, their works touch people.
