Nigerian businessman Olakunle Churchill has denied reports alleging that he was arrested by law enforcement authorities over alleged tax evasion.
The reports also claimed that one of Churchill’s associates was being investigated in connection with a company involved in agricultural importation and international trade.
Reacting in a post on his Instagram page, Churchill dismissed the claims as false, insisting they were fabricated by individuals he said were envious of his success and progress.
He noted that although he keeps the details of his life private, he is not secretive and will speak up when the need arises.
“We Nigerians can sometimes be our own biggest problem. The jealousy, negativity, and constant spread of false information are exhausting. Over the years, I have chosen to keep many aspects of my personal and business life private. That choice should never be mistaken for having something to hide. Privacy is a principle I value, and I intend to keep it that way. For the avoidance of doubt, I have no police case, no court case, and no criminal matter whatsoever. Any claims suggesting otherwise are entirely false and should be treated as such,” he stated.
Churchill also noted that he is focused on his work and business, adding hat the truth does not need defence.
“My focus remains on building businesses, creating opportunities, supporting meaningful causes, and continuing the work that truly matters. Those who know me understand that my values, actions, and consistency speak far louder than speculation. I remain grateful to God for His grace and protection. Truth requires no defence; only time. I will continue to move forward with integrity, dignity, and unwavering faith,” he concluded.
