Pastor Bolaji Idowu, leader of Harvesters International Christian Centre (HICC), has addressed recent reports regarding his interaction with the Nigerian Police, clarifying that he was invited to assist in an investigation and was never arrested.
In a video message to his congregation, which surfaced on social media on Sunday, December 8, 2024, Pastor Idowu explained his involvement in a case concerning a church member accused of being implicated in financial wrongdoing.
His words, “This is from me to you: I was invited and not arrested,” he began. “I was invited by the Police to help in an investigation about a church member that got into some trouble.
“I would love to say so much to you, but remember that the case is under investigation, and also a person is involved. They all have wives, they all have children, they all have relatives. If you start mentioning names right now, which is what most of you expect me to do, you will also be ruining someone’s life.
“I will let the Police do their thing while my assistance is over, and I can step aside,”
The cleric criticised media reports surrounding the matter, describing them as misrepresentations of what transpired.
Pastor Idowu also expressed gratitude to his congregation for their unwavering support during the ordeal. “Thank you for trusting and supporting me even when you didn’t know the facts of the matter,” he said.
The investigation is ongoing, and the pastor emphasised his commitment to cooperating fully with law enforcement while respecting the confidentiality of those involved.
