Multichoice to remove TB Joshua’s Emmanuel TV from DStv, GOtv, others January 17
In the wake of the controversies surrounding the deceased founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), TB Joshua, as highlighted by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), Multichoice DStv has informed its viewers of the decision to cease airing the religious TV network, Emmanuel TV, established by the late clergyman, on channel 390. The discontinuation is set to take effect from January 17th, 2024.
A notification displayed on DStv states: “Dear viewer, please be advised that Emmanuel TV will no longer be available after January 17th, 2024. Thank you for your viewership.”
Apart from parting ways with MultiChoice, reports indicate that Emmanuel TV will also cease to be broadcast on StarSat and various other pay-TV platforms.
This development coincides with the release of a controversial three-part documentary by the BBC, which alleges atrocities and sexual crimes committed by the late TB Joshua towards his disciples. The Nation reported that the BBC conducted an extensive investigation into the late preacher and his church, interviewing at least 30 individuals who claimed to be former members and workers of the SCOAN.
