Amid deportation controversies, Pastor Tobi Adegboyega claims massive financial success
Pastor Tobi Adegboyega, the controversial founder of the now-defunct SPAC Nation, has once again captured public attention. While embroiled in deportation proceedings from the United Kingdom, Adegboyega claims his businesses raised over £1 million within 24 hours, a financial milestone he attributes to the media storm surrounding his case.
The Journey of Tobi Adegboyega
Tobi Adegboyega, born in 1980, rose to prominence as a Nigerian pastor and entrepreneur who founded SPAC Nation in the UK. Known for its vibrant services and appeal to young people, especially within the Black community, the church gained a reputation for flashy displays of wealth and a focus on empowerment. However, allegations of financial exploitation and cult-like practices overshadowed its mission.
Arriving in the UK in 2005 on a visitor’s visa, Adegboyega’s legal troubles escalated when authorities shut down SPAC Nation, citing over £1.87 million in unaccounted expenditures.
December 2024, an immigration tribunal upheld a deportation order against Adegboyega, citing concerns over financial mismanagement and overstated claims of community impact. The tribunal ruled that his deportation would not disrupt the operations of SPAC Nation or his family relationships, as his residency in the UK was deemed unlawful.
Despite the ruling, Adegboyega remains defiant. Addressing his followers on social media, he declared:
“I’m right here at home, no cause for alarm… Every Nigerian should be proud of me. In the UK, a city that is well known for pulling people down, I’ve survived all sorts.”
His legal team continues to challenge the deportation order, arguing that his case does not involve criminal charges and should not warrant such drastic measures.
In a surprising twist, Adegboyega claims that the ongoing controversy has propelled his businesses to new heights. According to his statements on social media, the publicity has driven significant financial support, with his ventures reportedly generating over £1 million in just one day.
Celebrating this success, he shared videos of his team rejoicing, saying:
“Our Christmas has started here; we have enough visibility for the end of the year. Finance and good force is coming in. It’s never been this crazy.”
