On Tuesday, the Synagogue Church of all Nations responded to the BBC documentary about the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, commonly known as TB Joshua, who founded SCOAN.
SCOAN refuted the documentary, labeling it as baseless. They emphasized that the individuals interviewed in the documentary were unfamiliar to the church.
In a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr. Dare Adejumo, the church aimed to clarify and challenge the public’s perception created by the report.
Earlier, on Monday, the BBC aired a highly contentious and severe documentary alleging several crimes, including accusations of rape against certain members, against the late TB Joshua.
SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.”
The church emphasized that while investigating and sharing reports is a fundamental aspect of journalism, straying from the ethics and core principles of the profession is considered a deviation.
They highlighted that journalism, serving as a societal watchdog, necessitates fairness, balance, and objectivity to uphold its integrity, honor, and respect as an essential pillar of society known as the fourth estate.
“BBC has compromised these lofty principles by descending into fictional narratives and propaganda, thus turning itself into a weapon for a hatchet job as gangsters in the gab of journalism with a destructive ulterior motive for personal gains against a perceived enemy.
“Only BBC can best explain why it woefully deviated from true journalism and chose to be dishing junks and feeding the public with stones called bread by its offensive and disenchanted reports of disgruntled elements.
“This, to say the least, is insulting to our professional and public intelligence. One thing is very obvious, hundreds of BBC charades cannot rubbish the indelible footprints of TB Joshua’s legacies on earth again.”
As per the Church’s statement, thousands of individuals have experienced astonishing miracles and greatly benefited from the divine anointing and grace bestowed upon the Church’s servant by the Lord.
“Those beneficiaries are all over the place and cannot be disputed that are lining up and responding angrily to this imperialist broadcasting station.
”Many of them are in the UK the home base of BBC but which its jaundiced investigative eyes cannot see but only the obviously suborned narrators!
“Myriads of broken homes reconciled by TB Joshua are also crying foul of BBC’s broadcast of iniquity. Uncountable hopeless children drawn from different parts of the world; some brought by their parents while some were picked from drug joints or brothels who have gotten their destinies restored are also pissed off by the offensive reports.
”BBC has obviously shot itself in the foot by its compromise and roadside journalism.”
”Some of those identified there are relics of homosexual and lesbian associates. My findings further show that everything the BBC put together is strange to SCOAN.
“One other clearly illogical thing in the charade is the BBC’s categorical statement that the man of God was involved in all the abuse for over two decades!
”How can that be in a nation governed by law? It shows the station’s crude disrespect and bizarre perception of Nigeria.
“Where were all those shameless interviewees in all the decades? Was it when the man passed on that they suddenly became awake or came back to their senses? Only a fool will have respect for such charlatans.”
According to SCOAN, witnessing such content is not just disheartening but also disrespectful, especially coming from reporters who are assumed to be well-trained.
They highlighted that the intention behind these actions seemed to be tarnishing the reputation unfairly.
Furthermore, they suggested that the sponsors behind the BBC documentary might have been envious of the continuous flourishing of the church, likening it to a tree thriving by the riverside.
“Thank God your report exonerated his only wife of any wrongdoings throughout the decades of your so-called investigated lopsided work.
“But did you think any wife at all can see and watch all those nonsensical and annoying scenarios you painted for decades and still kept silent? I am yet to read or see such a woman in the universe!
“This is illogical, irritating, incomprehensible, unfathomable, and satanically dubious and malicious.”
