The BBC released an investigative documentary outlining allegations of rape, physical abuse, staged miracles, and forced abortions.

In the documentary, which features Namibian TV personality and motivational speaker Jessica Kaimu, the late televangelist T.B. Joshua is accused of impregnating multiple women while running what resembles a religious cult.

It was on Monday morning when Namibians, together with the rest of the world, woke up to 'The Disciples', an investigative BBC documentary.

Over five women share their personal experiences of their time at the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN). They accuse the late Nigerian TB Joshua of horrific crimes, including forced abortions and rape.

Jessica Kaimu is a Namibian personality. In the documentary, she revealed the personal circumstances that led to her seeking salvation at Joshua's megachurch at the young age of 17.

The 3-part documentary reveals the clandestine lifestyle of the deceased man of the cloth, or 'Man of God', as he was referred to by his dogmatic followers.

The alleged sexual crimes spanned over two decades. In the minds of many, why did the victims opt to stay?

Jessica Kaimu says that her ordeal lasted for more than five years. 

She claims that Joshua first sexually assaulted her when she was seventeen years old.

TB Joshua was celebrated as one of the most influential preachers in African history upon his passing in June 2021. 

When contacted by other media houses, the church always maintained that accusations against TB Joshua are coming a long way, and they remain allegations. 

The nbc News attempted to get comments from the church, but calls made to several numbers indicated on its website went unanswered.

DStv has announced that it will stop airing Emmanuel TV, which was founded by the late prophet, on January 17 this year.
