Pastor Jeremiah Withdraws Lawsuit, Seeks Peace with Verydarkman
In a surprising turn of events, Pastor Jeremiah Fufeyin, the founder of Christ Mercyland Deliverance Ministry (CMDM), has chosen to withdraw his N1 billion lawsuit against Nigerian social media activist Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as Verydarkman. The decision comes after a heated controversy surrounding the clergyman’s “miracle products,” including soap, water, and perfume, which Verydarkman had publicly questioned and criticized.
The dispute began when Verydarkman threatened to report Pastor Jeremiah to the National Agency for Food and Drugs Administration and Control (NAFDAC) for selling his miracle products, claiming that the clergyman was profiting from a power he claimed was given by God for free. In response, Pastor Jeremiah sued Verydarkman for N1 billion and obtained a restraining order against him.
Undeterred, Verydarkman took matters into his own hands and purchased the “miracle water” to test its efficacy. He visited a disability home in Abuja and gave the water to physically challenged individuals, hoping to witness the promised miracles. However, by the end of the day, no extraordinary events occurred, casting doubt on the water’s healing properties.
In a statement that went viral on social media, Pastor Jeremiah announced his decision to withdraw the lawsuit and forgive Verydarkman. He cited the teachings of Jesus Christ, who preached peace and corrected sinners with compassion, as the reason for his change of heart. “Verydarkman, I, Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin, extend forgiveness to you. I am withdrawing the court case against you. Following the teachings of Jesus, who preached peace and corrected sinners, I forgive you. May you learn from your mistakes and walk in righteousness from now on, my son,” Pastor Jeremiah said.
The news of Pastor Jeremiah’s withdrawal has sparked mixed reactions on social media. Some have praised the clergyman for his decision to seek peace, while others remain skeptical about the efficacy of his miracle products. Verydarkman, for his part, has yet to publicly respond to the news.
This incident serves as a reminder of the power of forgiveness and the importance of seeking peace, even in the face of conflict. Pastor Jeremiah’s decision to withdraw the lawsuit and extend forgiveness to Verydarkman is a testament to his commitment to the teachings of Jesus Christ and his desire to live in harmony with his fellow man.
