Temitope Balogun Joshua was worshipped by millions as a Christian preacher who claimed to perform countless miraculous healings and speaking with the word of God.
Upon his death on June 5, 2021 the church he founded in 1987, the Synagogue Church Of All Nations (SCOAN), had hundreds of millions of followers and had made him possibly the most recognisable Christian leader in Africa.
Joshua found international fame and recruited thousands of people from across the world, including the UK and other European countries.
But he has now been accused of running a ‘cult’ and perpetrating physical and sexual abuse against ‘hundreds’ of his followers in a new BBC documentary, The Disciples.
From claims he spent 15 months in his mother’s womb to being warmly welcomed by international leaders, MailOnline reveals the preacher’s rise to revered religious leader.
