Correct Answer: among his followers


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

Explanation:
The original sentence uses between incorrectly; it should be replaced with among to denote the relationship between someone and a group.

Among is used when referring to relationships within a group, which fits the context of the sentence better. It indicates that his words have a significant impact on the group of people who follow him.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "His words wield tremendous influence among his followers. "
