Pastor Tobi Adegboyega has denied allegations of deportation from the United Kingdom, following claims that his church was closed due to financial mismanagement involving £1.87 million.
His lawyer, Dele Olanwale, refuted the reports, describing them as baseless and rooted in misinformation. “Deportation laws in the UK apply only to individuals with criminal convictions, and Pastor Adegboyega has none.
He has lived in the UK for over 20 years without any criminal record,” Olanwale stated.
Acknowledging inquiries from the courts and the Charity Commission about the church’s management, Olanwale emphasized that Adegboyega has not been personally implicated or found guilty.
He criticized the spread of false claims, particularly within the African community, for sensationalism and the tendency to undermine those who stand out.
The lawyer highlighted Adegboyega’s contributions to the British community and stressed that the pastor remains committed to his work despite the challenges.
