Pastor Bolaji Idowu, Lead Pastor of Harvesters International Christian Centre (HICC), is reportedly in police custody as investigations into alleged real estate fraud and alleged money laundering are underway.
Authorities from the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) are interrogating the pastor in Abuja, according to reports. While details remain limited, the investigation has drawn attention due to Pastor Idowu’s prominent role in the Christian community.
Since founding HICC in December 2003, Pastor Idowu has overseen its growth into a major ministry with branches in Nigeria, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The church reportedly engages over 70,000 worshippers through its online and onsite platforms, with Pastor Idowu widely recognized for his “Next Level Prayers” initiative, which encourages spiritual growth and prayer.
These allegations have raised questions about the ministry, prompting interest and concern among its congregation and the broader public. At this time, no official statements have been made by the police or Pastor Idowu’s representatives regarding the case.
As the investigation continues, further developments are awaited.
