“Prophet Jeremiah Refutes Allegations of Misusing NAFDAC’s Name”
Special invitation
Senior Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin of Christ MercyLand Ministry has denied using the name of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) on its spiritual items to deceive Nigerians.
Fufeyin spoke through his church’s media outfit, MercyLand Television Deliverance Ministry, which issued a statement signed by Sophia Iloyd, faulting a media report by a national daily online.
The statement described the publication as false and pointed out that Christ Mercy Land Deliverance Ministry is a law-abiding Christian church that recognizes the extant laws of the land, including the NAFDAC Act.
The church emphasized its right to freedom of religion without interference, as guaranteed by Section 39 and 38 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The statement asserted that the church has been using certain spiritual items in expression of its religious beliefs, guided by biblical injunctions in the holy bible.
The church denied deceiving or dishonestly deceiving any members of the general public, stating that it has never produced or sold consumable items to the public.
The statement also denied that Senior Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin has ever used the NAFDAC name to deceive innocent members of the public.
The church pointed out that it was aware of a pending petition against it by Mr. Martins Vincent Otse (alias Verydarkblackman), which it has sued before the FCT high court.
The church received a letter from NAFDAC office extending an invitation to discuss its miracle and healing spiritual items, but was given less than 12 hours to appear.
The church wrote to NAFDAC Headquarters office, Abuja, communicating its position and sent another subsequent letter to NAFDAC.
The church alleged that the nominal complainant to NAFDAC office forged its receipts to bring a complaint before the NAFDAC office.
The church also stated that there is an ongoing police investigation into certain receipts that have indicted the nominal complainants, and that NAFDAC has not written to the church or given feedback on these issues.
Recall that on Sunday, NAFDAC said it has uncovered a scheme by Prophet Jeremiah to sell unregistered products to unsuspecting Nigerians.
The products, including “miracle water” and “miracle soap”, are falsely claimed to be NAFDAC-approved and possess healing properties, such as curing barrenness and ensuring pregnancy with twins.
