African enterprise
Over the past 15 years, GOD TV has made a significant impact across Africa as viewers have watched via generic satellite decoders or by video on demand where Internet access has allowed, the network reports in a blog post. There has even been a report of viewers in a rural community using a car battery to power their TV set! It seems some viewers will go to any length to watch what has become one of Africa’s most sought-after channels, the post comments.

But now, it will be easier to access GOD TV in South Africa, Lesotho, Namibia, Swaziland, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Botswana, and Mozambique. All DStv viewers will have to do is click onto channel 344 to experience GOD TV.

“We are launching on DStv with the slogan ‘Encounter God differently’ and we hope to provide millions of new viewers with exactly that,” says Olivier. “We want to give the people of Africa an opportunity to truly get to know and interact with the Father heart of God.
