The senior pastor of Harvesters International Christian Centre, Bolaji Idowu, has refuted allegations linking him to fraudulent real estate activities and money laundering in Nigeria.
Idowu disclosed this during his Next Level Prayers session on Wednesday.
His clarification comes amid a report on Tuesday alleging that Idowu had been detained in Abuja by operatives of the Force Criminal Investigation Department over his purported involvement in real estate fraud.
It was further alleged that the cleric regained his freedom after interventions by some prominent Christian leaders in the country.
However, reacting to the allegations, Idowu said he does not own any property in Nigeria except the one bequeathed to him.
He added that he did not receive billions from someone at any time.
“I do not have any property in Nigeria. The only property I have in Nigeria is the one bequeathed to me. So, there is no property that I have or bought in Nigeria,” he told his congregation.
“Someone said I received billions into my account. My accounts are public; you can check if I have ever received billions in them. It is just a lot of things going on in the press, but this is not the forum to address that,” he stated.
