Police arrest Harvester Church founder Bolaji Idowu for money laundering, real estate fraud
The Nigerian police have released the Lead Pastor of the Harvesters International Christian Center (HICC), Bolaji Idowu, from its custody after big shots in the Aso Rock Villa, which is the seat of the Nigerian government and some clerics in the country intervened.
It should be recalled that Pastor Idowu was arrested earlier on Tuesday by the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, for alleged N1.5billion fraud.
However, according to Sahara Reporters, Pastor Bolaji Idosu was released after some forces in the Aso Rock Villa and some top pastors in the country mounted pressure on the Nigerian police.
“Pastor Bolaji was released late into the evening after big pastors and President Tinubu’s Aso Villa intervened in the matter,” one of the top police sources revealed.
“He has been asked to pay back the money traced to his account in two weeks,” the authoritative source added.
