A group known as Ijaw Progressive Forum (IPF) has advised one Mr. Ekene Clinton Egbuna, also known as Klintoncod, for allegedly using defamatory utterances against Prophet Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin, the founder of Christ Mercyland Deliverance Ministry.
A statement released to journalists in Yenagoa on Thursday stated that the President of the IPF, Comrade Peretimi Ebiowei, condemned the statements made by Klintoncod on social media, maintaining that the statements amounted to character assassination and public ridicule of a revered religious leader.
The group described Prophet Fufeyin as a respected figure within the Ijaw Nation and a source of pride in the Niger Delta Region and the Nation at large.
According to the group's President Klintoncod had recently used his social media platforms to accuse Prophet Fufeyin of fraudulent behavior and labeled him a negative force within Christianity.
The IPF President stated that such remarks were not only unsubstantiated but also disrespectful to the values upheld by the Ijaw people, who hold religious leaders in high esteem.
The IPF through the statement stated that it would no longer remain silent while public figures from the Ijaw Nation, especially those in religious service, are subjected to personal attacks and public defamation.
The group also stated that it was actively monitoring Klintoncod’s online activity and that it will take “all lawful and available means” to defend the integrity of Prophet Fufeyin.
IPF also appealed to the public, media outlets, and digital platforms to act responsibly by discouraging and regulating the spread of unverified or defamatory content, especially content that targets religious and community leaders.
According to the group, such actions pose a threat not only to individual reputations but also to the social and moral fabric of the Ijaw community.
IPF reiterated that Prophet Jeremiah is widely recognized not only for his spiritual leadership but also for his charitable work and philanthropy.
It noted that these contributions have positively impacted many lives across Nigeria and beyond, and that such a figure should not be the target of what he called “malicious campaigns.”
The group further remarked that Klintoncod’s comments demonstrated a lack of understanding of spiritual matters.
The group further exlained that this would be the IPF’s final public warning on the matter, adding that any further attacks on Prophet Fufeyin would be considered a direct challenge to the values and unity of the Ijaw people.
The statement reads:“Senior Prophet Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin is a father figure to many and a spiritual leader we hold in the highest regard.
“It is disappointing that Klintoncod derives pleasure in mocking and insulting him through baseless allegations and unprintable names.
“This should serve as the final warning to Mr. Klintoncod and his co-travelers in this shameful behavior.
“We are not idle, and in no distant time, we will begin to respond to him using every legal tool at our disposal. This insult to our faith and heritage must stop.
“Mr. Klintoncod should know that spiritual things are not for carnal minds.
“The deep things of the Spirit are not for the physical eyes. He lacks understanding of the things of the Spirit.” The statement pointed out.
