Anyim Vera, the woman who recently shared her testimony at Dunamis International Gospel Centre in Abuja, has addressed the controversy surrounding her story.
Vera, who spoke about being the only graduate in her family and obtaining a “BSc in Law” from the National Open University of Nigeria, was accused of lying by Senior Pastor Paul Eneche during a service on Sunday, April 14.
In a statement on her Facebook page on Monday, April 15, Vera expressed her disappointment at being called a liar by her spiritual leader.
She explained that she mistakenly said “B.Sc” instead of “LLB” because she struggles with speaking English fluently, and she actually graduated with a Third Class from NOUN.
Her words:
“It’s disheartened because I couldn’t speak English like lawyers. I was labelled a liar for mistakenly saying B.Sc instead of LLB. Actually, I graduated with a Third Class at NOUN.
“The rejected stone can become the cornerstone. We’re reminded not to look down on anyone.
“U can’t imagine what I endured throughout the service. How shattered I must have felt to be disgraced by my spiritual leader in such a manner?
“I am no. 2262 on the list. I Vera deserves better now.”
