Vera Anyim who suffered public disgrace at Dunamis Church from Pastor Enenche over B.Sc Law slip, slammed by netizens for seeking financial assistance to fund new celebrity status 

 

A member of Dunamis International Gospel Center (DIGC), Anyim Vera who trended on social media after she was accused of lying during a testimony by her pastor, Paul Enenche has come under heavy criticism from Nigerians.

On April 15, a video clip had captured the Senior Pastor of the church, querying Vera’s testimony of becoming a law graduate after saying she had B.Sc instead of LLB. 

Enenche wondered how a supposed law graduate would earn a B.Sc rather than LLB, and sent her back to her seat, saying the testimony was a lie.

His action later triggered condemnation from Nigerians who demanded that the pastor must apologize to her and he eventually did.

However, in a recent video shared on Vera’s Facebook page, she was heard appealing to Nigerians to assist her financially so that she can get an accommodation that is befitting of her new status.

According to the policewoman, her current residence is no longer safe, stressing that her ‘celebrity’ status was not planned.

Speaking via her verified social media page, Anyim Vera said, “I want to say to Nigerians, you know this thing that happened is a thing of joy, I never dreamed of it, it came this moment, I never dream of being a celebrity.

“It just came all of a sudden. I never prepared for it. I want to use this medium to urge us to assist me with accommodation because I am not buoyant now to rent a house. Where I am staying now is risky and insecure. It is a very open place and everybody already knows I am a celebrity.”

The move, however, backfired, as netizens stormed the comment section of the post to chastise her.

An internet user identified as Lois Adams wrote: She needs to be laid off the service, if she doesn’t stop. She is constituting nuisance.”

Another netizen, Edward Ojodomo said:  “This very video has the capability to tarnish your good image, damage your godly reputation and deny you of spectrum of potential favour and blessings that are already revolving around you. Take down this video ASAP and keep hope alive to seeing how God will transform your life miraculously soon. It’s just a candid advice ma.”

Iyanya Johnny added: “You are popular, that’s different from being a celebrity. Now you want help? I thought they said she is a police officer.”

Ekanade Samuel also said: “Madam, don’t abuse the privilege you have now, it will not last forever. Appreciate God for what He has done for you and move on with your life. According to Dr Pst Paul Enenche, you won’t have the stage forever, make sense on time.’ Selah!”

Chidozie Emebie wrote: “This is not right madam. Whoever advised you to make this video does not mean well for you. Please, your life is safe. There is no need to be afraid now. God has really blessed you and more is coming. You have to apply wisdom and discretion.”
