|August 22, 2025
The Department of Justice (DOJ) insisted on Thursday, Aug. 21, that it has not received any formal extradition request from the United States government concerning Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) founder Apollo C. Quiboloy.
"The regular process would entail the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) receiving the extradition request first before it is officially endorsed to the DOJ," explained DOJ Spokesperson and Assistant Secretary Jose Dominic Clavano IV.
In a message to journalists covering the DOJ, Clavano said: "In this case, DFA has not received any request. The DOJ could not have officially received the request as well. Verily, no extradition request on this has yet been transmitted to the DOJ."
