Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin
By Our Reporter
Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin’s Christ MercyLand Deliverance Ministries (CMDM) is currently entangled in a missing child scandal.
NATIONAL WAVES gathered that a two-year-old child of a physically challenged woman, Ruth Matthew, allegedly went missing in the church three years ago.
The woman has continuously want justice to prevail over the disappearance of her child in Prophet Fufeyin’s church.
The matter took a new twist as Ruth Matthew was allegedly arrested by the police.
The woman was on Saturday allegedly moved by the police to Benin, Edo State and has been in detention since then.
Human rights advocate and founder of Obasi Foundation for Justice, Isaac Obasi, on Tuesday posted a video showing how Ruth, came down from an aircraft in Benin City, Edo State and whisked away in a wheelchair.
His post reads, “Three years ago, a physically challenged woman named Ruth Matthew went to the church of popular Warri-based prophet, Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin with her four children (all boys).
“She said when Jeremiah saw her, he asked if he was the mother of all these boys and she answered in the affirmative, then from there at their Mercy land church, the youngest of her son who was then 2 years old disappeared mysteriously. She began to look for him but couldn’t find him.
“Prophet Jeremiah’s security couldn’t explain where the missing child was and they have refused to show the CCTV footage of what transpired. Ruth began to cry out for her son but was rebuffed’
“Ruth refused and kept raising her voice to make sure she gets back her son. A South African-based preacher got in contact with her and began to help her out to see that justice is done and she gets back her child.
“Prophet Jeremiah and his followers didn’t like that, so they began threatening her and also promising her millions and cars for her to stop talking about her missing son but as usual she refused and on Saturday the police on the orders of Prophet Jeremiah came to abduct Ruth and took her to Benin.
“As God will have it, a fearless and fiery woman of God, Bisola Hephzi-bah Johnson had flown into Abuja from Lagos to stand by Ruth and make sure she gets justice. She looked for her in Abuja police stations but couldn’t find her, she was told Ruth had been taken to Benin and she decided to fly down to Benin and by fate, the aircraft she boarded was the one used to fly Ruth and she made this video.
In the video, Bisola in her narration, said she enquired about Ruth in Abuja and was told that she had been taken to Benin City.
As the woman identified as Ruth was getting down from the plane, Bisola could be heard saying, “Ruth, is that you? We are here for you; we are here live on Facebook. They picked this lady in Abuja, we will give you Tsunami if that is what you want. Whatever they say you have done, that is the man who picked her up.
“Don’t worry, we will follow you. They picked her in Abuja and now I don’t know where they are taking her to.” She accused the pastor of arresting Ruth.”
“She took her children to Jeremiah’s church and one disappeared. And now they are taking her to Jeremiah; they kidnapped her,” she said.
Efforts to make Prophet Fufeyin react to the allegations met a brick wall as repeated calls to his mobile phone were unattended to. He also did not respond to our enquiry sent via SMS to his mobile phone as at the time of filling this report.
