Popular Nigerian pastor, Mathew Ashimolo is in hot soup.

The founder of Kingsway International Christian Centre is said to be facing criminal investigation in London due to a ‘disastrous investment scheme which led to a Charity Commission report into an alleged mismanagement’ at the church, where £5 million cash of Richard Rufus, former Charlton Athletic player was invested.

Pastor Ashimolowo has been accused of using church money to buy a £13,000 Florida timeshare, spent £120,000 on birthday celebrations, including £80,000 on a car.
