Multichoice, the parent company of DStv and GOtv will stop broadcasting Emmanuel TV, the religious television network owned by the late Nigerian televangelist Temitope Babatunde Joshua, popularly known as TB Joshua.
According to Multichoice, it will no longer air Emmanuel TV on its platforms from Wednesday, January 17, 2024.
The decision to remove Emmanuel TV from MultiChoice platforms was made following an investigative documentary released on January 8, 2024, by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) on the late TB Joshua, founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN).
Apart from MultiChoice, Emmanuel TV would also exit StarSat and other pay-tv platforms.
Emmanuel TV, which was founded in 2006, has been on air worldwide on various satellites and was used to propagate the preaching of the late TB Joshua.
It has also gained popularity and expanded its reach through its YouTube channel, which was one of the most subscribed Christian ministry YouTube channels globally.
However, in April 2021, YouTube shut down the channel due to “gay curing” reports.
