Prophet Fufeyin denies deceptive use of spiritual items in NAFDAC dispute

We're investigating Pastor Jeremiah's miracle water, soap - NAFDAC

The church, as expressed in the release, is frustrated by NAFDAC's lack of response to its inquiries, despite its willingness to engage in dialogue.

Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin of Christ MercyLand Deliverance Ministry has refuted allegations that his ministry deceived Nigerians by using the name of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC).

The allegations surfaced after NAFDAC issued a public warning on Sunday, 8, September cautioning against the ministry's use of its name in association with spiritual items.

In a statement signed by Sophia Iloyd, the church's media representative, Fufeyin's ministry declared the claims "false and misleading."

According to the statement, the church operates within the legal protections of Sections 38 and 39 of Nigeria's Constitution, which guarantees freedom of religion and expression.

"As a church, we are guided by our faith and the teachings of the Bible. We have not produced or sold consumable items, let alone used NAFDAC's name to deceive the public," the church stated, according to Punch.

The ministry acknowledged receiving a letter from NAFDAC on August 27, inviting the spiritual head to question the ministry about its use of healing items.

However, the church was given less than 12 hours to respond and had already communicated its stance to the agency.

Furthermore, the church alleged that the complainant, Mr Martins Vincent Otse, forged receipts in his claims, which are now under police investigation.

The church, as expressed in the release, is frustrated by NAFDAC's lack of response to its inquiries, despite its willingness to engage in dialogue.

NYSC Mobilisation & Academic Standards – Raising quality or adding pressure on students?

On September 29, 2025, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu approved a reform linking the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) mobilisation process to the National Policy for the Nigeria Education Repository and Databank (NERD). By invoking Sections 2(4)(4) and 16(1)(C) of the NYSC Act, Tinubu stated that no graduate, whether from a Nigerian or foreign institution, will be mobilised for or exempted from NYSC without proof of compliance with the NERD policy. In a common man's understanding, the Federal Government has announced that Nigerian students must now submit their final-year projects or thesis before they can be mobilised for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC). This policy aims to improve academic standards, ensuring that no student skips essential academic requirements before entering the NYSC scheme . On the surface, this sounds like a laudable idea, but a deeper look reveals a different reality. In many universities, students are allowed to graduate and mobilised for NYSC  ...
