HICC Pastor, Bolaji Idowu to Remain in Police Custody Over Alleged ₦1.5 Billion Fraud

The Lead Pastor of Harvesters International Christian Center (HICC), Bolaji Idowu, is set to remain in custody at the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) in Abuja, following allegations of involvement in a ₦1.5 billion fraud.

EKO HOT BLOG reported that Pastor Idowu was detained over claims of real estate fraud and money laundering.

According to police sources speaking to SaharaReporters, he will remain in a police cell as investigations continue, with billions of naira allegedly traced to both his church and personal accounts.

“The case began with one of his pastors, who defrauded several people through a real estate scheme,” a police insider disclosed. “Our investigation revealed that funds linked to the scheme were first traced to the church’s account and later transferred to Pastor Bolaji’s personal account.”
