Bolaji Idowu

Popular Nigerian pastor and founder of Harvesters International Christian Center, Bolaji Idowu, has been released from police custody following intervention from the presidency. Pastor Idowu was arrested on allegations of money laundering and real estate fraud, a case that has sparked widespread public interest.

Reports reveal that the police detained the clergyman after claims surfaced linking him to suspicious financial activities involving his real estate dealings. However, Pastor Idowu has firmly denied the allegations, labeling them baseless and aimed at tarnishing his reputation. Speaking publicly for the first time since his release, he expressed gratitude for the support of his followers and maintained his innocence, pledging to cooperate fully with authorities to resolve the matter.

The presidency’s involvement in securing his release underscores the case’s high-profile nature, but details of the intervention remain undisclosed. This development has drawn mixed reactions, with some praising the pastor’s integrity and others demanding further investigation to ensure accountability.

The case continues to unfold, leaving questions about the legitimacy of the allegations and the broader implications for religious leaders in Nigeria.
