Despite allegations of fraud, Adegboyega stated that he does not benefit from the church's revenues.

He added that his present problems began when a Member of Parliament from his district accused him of lobbying against the gay community.

Adegboyega stated that the MP denounced the church's activities to the police, and they were unable to examine the charges against him and the church because they were "all nonsensical."

He said: "You can't claim that our proof is inflated without telling us why. The UK Metropolitan Police gathered charities in the UK and asked them to go to my church. I wrote solutions for the home office.
"Truths must be backed with facts. For 10 years, we have been persecuted without one single move. Allegations without indictment, so why shouldn't we suspect biases?
"We have a situation where people believed I was supporting certain political parties because one person believed that my agenda was to go against the gay community, and from that day, we have been to reconciliation meetings.
