The prominent Nigerian Christian televangelist Jeremiah Fufeyin leads a church that produces “miracle” products. However, Nigeria’s drug regulatory department has issued a warning to the public not to purchase these product.
The goods, dubbed “miracle water” and “River Jordan water,” according to Nafdac, purport to have “bogus” medicinal qualities, like the capacity to treat infertility in women.
The statement added that despite lacking Nafdac clearance, Mr. Fufeyin’s Christ Mercyland Deliverance Ministry was selling these goods.
In retaliation, the church declared that it is “law abiding”and that “spiritual items in expression of [their] spiritual beliefs” have been used.
Christ Mercyland Deliverance Ministry noted in a statement released on Sunday that it complies with Nigerian laws that protect religious freedom without hindrance.
After hearing from the public, Nafdac launched an investigation into the products, according to a statement from the organization.
Additionally, it claimed that Mr. Fufeyin’s church had “refused to co-operate with the investigation” and that the products did not comply with regulatory permission.
The church refuted this assertion. It boasts hundreds of thousands of YouTube subscribers and tremendous popularity on social media.
It claimed to have corresponded with Nafdac through letter. Due to his claims to be able to heal illnesses and perform miracles, Mr. Fufeyin has long drawn fans from all over the nation.
Although the preacher claims to be a billionaire, he has come under fire for leading an opulent lifestyle.
