Pastor Tobi Adegboyega refutes deportation rumours

By Tosin Brown

Pastor Tobi Adegboyega, founder of SPAC Nation church, has dismissed reports suggesting he is facing deportation from the UK over an alleged £1.87 million fraud.

In a video posted on his Instagram page, Adegboyega denied any criminal case against him and reassured his supporters that there was no cause for alarm. He emphasized his resilience in overcoming challenges during his time in the UK.

“I’m right here at home, no cause for alarm, and naturally I’ll dismiss things that have to do with retrogression,” he stated.

He continued, “Every Nigerian should be proud of me. In the UK, a city well known for pulling people down, I’ve survived all sorts. So, the matter they are propagating now is the smallest matter.

“There’s no need for panic. I love London City; it’s my city, and nobody can do anything. Of all the people of colour you know here—pastors and leaders—I have survived everything.”

Addressing the fraud allegations, he said, “This is an advanced country. After all these years, have you ever heard someone go to parliament to make all sorts of complaints? Someone from another race, another colour. Nothing came out of it.

“So, those who hate, hate already. What you want to hear is not what you heard today. What you want to hear is, ‘They’ve arrested him for money this, money that.’

“But there’s not one criminal case, not one money case. You should all be proud of me and of the nation’s family.”

Reassuring his followers, Adegboyega declared, “I’m here; I’m at home. Nobody should panic for me.
