Pastor Bolaji Idowu Denies Allegations of N1.5 Billion Fraud Amid Police Investigation
The Lead Pastor of Harvesters International Christian Center (HICC), Bolaji Idowu, has responded to allegations linking him to an alleged N1.5 billion fraud.
The accusations stem from reports that one of his pastors duped several individuals in a real estate scheme, with funds allegedly traced to the church and his personal accounts.

Addressing his congregation, Pastor Bolaji stated:
“In the last 24 hours, there has been a lot of news about me on social media… I do not have any property in Nigeria, except the one my late parents left me. I do not sell or buy properties. My accounts are public; you can check if I have ever received billions.”

Phyno Talks About the Struggles of Balancing Music and Marriage
Nigerian rapper and music sensation, Chibuzor Nelson Azubuike, better known as Phyno, has shared his candid thoughts on the challenges celebrities face when it comes to balancing marriage and a demanding career, especially in the music industry.
During a recent appearance on the In My Opinion podcast, Phyno opened up about the complexities of managing both marriage and a career in music.
The rapper, famous for hits like Alobam and Fada Fada, described music as a “jealous and tasking” career, explaining that the intense demands of the industry often make it difficult to maintain personal relationships.
He went on to elaborate, saying that, statistically, many celebrities’ careers begin to falter once they get married.
Phyno acknowledged that this might sound harsh but emphasized the unique pressures placed on musicians.
“Music is basically a jealous career,” he said.
“That’s why so many people drop out of school to focus on it.
The ones who manage to juggle both deserve a lot of credit because it’s not an easy task.”
“Sometimes, some people reach a certain level of fame, then they rush back to school, only to return to the music scene later,” he noted.
He emphasized the importance of focusing on one thing at a time, especially given the personal sacrifices involved in creating music.
“Music takes all your time. You can’t really focus on anything else when you’re in the thick of it.”
Phyno also touched on the personal nature of songwriting.
For artists who write their own music, the lyrics often reflect their own life experiences, including relationships.
“If you’re going through a tough time with a partner, you can’t realistically write about happiness,” he said.
“Your music is shaped by what you’re experiencing, unless you rely on songwriters, but even then, there’s still a personal touch.”
