The recent decision by the Royal Television Society (RTS) to award BBC Africa Eye and openDemocracy for their false and fabricated documentary, is not only shocking but also a glaring example of how modern journalism has sunk to new lows. This award celebrates a documentary riddled with falsehoods, fabrications, and a clear agenda to tarnish the reputation of one of Africa’s most influential religious figures, Prophet T.B. Joshua, and his ministry, The Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN).
The documentary, which claims to expose physical and sexual abuse by Prophet T.B. Joshua, is nothing more than a poorly constructed narrative designed to sensationalize and defame. It is deeply troubling that an organization like the RTS, which is supposed to uphold the highest standards of journalism, would reward such a biased and unverified piece of work. This award is not a reflection of excellence in journalism but rather evidence of the growing culture of dishonesty, blackmail, and unprofessionalism in the media industry.
Since the release of the documentary, numerous pieces of evidence have emerged that debunk the claims made by BBC Africa Eye and openDemocracy. Video evidence, testimonies from credible sources, police reports, and documented facts have all shown that the allegations against Prophet T.B. Joshua are baseless and fabricated. It is clear that the documentary was not created to seek the truth but to push a predetermined narrative aimed at destroying the legacy of a man who dedicated his life to helping others.
The individuals who allowed themselves to be featured in the documentary have been used as pawns in a larger game of media manipulation. They have been exploited for personal profit, and their reputations have been tarnished for generations to come. Just as Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus for personal gain, these individuals have allowed themselves to be used to betray a man who brought hope and healing to millions around the world. History will remember them not as heroes but as tools of deception and betrayers.
The decision to award this documentary also highlights the delusional state of the world and its establishment. It is a sad reflection of how far society has strayed from truth and integrity. The fact that an organization like the RTS can publicly reward such a dishonest piece of work shows the level of shamelessness and moral decay in modern journalism. It is a clear indication that the media industry is no longer interested in truth-telling but rather in pushing agendas and creating sensational stories for profit.
It is worth recalling that during the tragic September 2014 SCOAN guest house collapse, Prophet T.B. Joshua stated that powerful individuals were behind the attack. The relentless negative reporting on him and his ministry by certain media outlets, including BBC Africa Eye and openDemocracy, gives us a clear idea of who these powerful individuals might be. Their efforts to spread disinformation about the collapse and their shameless celebration of this award are, in a way, opening our eyes to the forces behind the SCOAN building tragedy. God is already exposing the falsehoods in their documentary, and this award only serves to further reveal their true intentions.
The African proverb says, “Those whom the gods wish to destroy, they first make mad.” The actions of BBC Africa Eye, openDemocracy, and the RTS are a clear sign of madness. They have chosen to ignore the truth and reward falsehood, but their time of judgment is coming. It may be slow, but it will surely come to pass. God’s judgment is inevitable, and those who have chosen to spread lies and deceit will face the consequences of their actions.
The RTS award is a stain on the reputation of journalism. It is a celebration of falsehood, unprofessionalism, and moral decay. BBC Africa Eye, openDemocracy, and the RTS should be ashamed of themselves for promoting such a dishonest and biased piece of work. The truth has already begun to prevail, and the world is now witnessing these organizations for what they truly are: purveyors of lies and deception. As more people become aware of the facts, the credibility of BBC Africa Eye, and the RTS continues to erode. Their actions have not only damaged their own reputations but have also highlighted the dangers of media manipulation and agenda-driven storytelling.
While they may celebrate their award now, the world is waking up to their deceit. God’s judgment is inevitable, and though it may seem delayed, it will surely come to pass. Those who spread falsehoods and exploit others for personal gain will not escape accountability. The truth will always triumph, and justice will be served in due time.
