Body of Christ Party leader Tomas Festus has justified naming his wife as a bank account signatory, citing administrative necessity after multiple former signatories defected to rival organizations. The parliamentarian stated that no legal or constitutional provisions prevent the arrangement, though he acknowledged potential conflict of interest concerns.

Festus explained that the party faced a six-month account freeze when previous signatories departed, blocking access to membership contributions and withdrawals during his absence. His wife serves dual roles as processor and treasurer, while a second signatory from Outapi also subsequently left the organization. The party lacks resources to maintain formal office space and relies on quarterly disbursements of approximately 350,000 Namibian dollars per parliamentary seat from the Electoral Commission.

The controversy emerged amid broader accusations from dissident members alleging financial mismanagement and constitutional violations within the predominantly revival church-affiliated political group.
