Vera Anyim, the lady whose popularity was fueled by the controversy that followed her recent testimony at the Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Abuja, has recorded an 8-minute long video begging Nigerians for support in securing an accomodation.

Anyim’s video made the rounds on the internet after her testimony was faulted and tagged a ‘lie’ by the church’s Senior Pastor, Paul Enenche.

Enenche interrupted and questioned the credibility of Anyim’s testimony at his church.

According to Anyim, she graduated with a “BSc in Law” from the National Open University of Nigeria, NOUN, but her statement was found as untrue by the lead Pastor, hence calling her a liar.

He said that her speech did not align with that of a law graduate and insisted that no such degree as a “BSc in Law” existed.

The incident sparked reactions online after it was discovered that the testimony was genuine.

Many called for a sincere apology from Enenche to the testifier, while others defended his stance.

Following the clamour, The Nation reported that the church, hours later released a statement in that regard.

They stated that the Senior Pastor’s actions were driven by a dedication to maintaining standards of excellence and integrity within the church community.

Anyim who recently returned from a sponsored vacation at Portland Resorts Hotel in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, is now seeking assistance from Nigerians to secure new accommodation.

She deemed her current living situation unsafe and called upon the public for support.

She 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 at 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.

“When I left Abuja, some people in my compound didn’t know what was happening, but I was there, and so many of them heard what was going on. Some have said they are waiting for me. My brother, who stays with me, told me that people gathered, all waiting for me.”

She expressed concern that people might misunderstand the situation and assume she received a large sum of money during her time in Port Harcourt.

The chairman of the Port Harcourt-based resort, Azubuike Ihemeje, had invited Anyim for an all-expense paid trip.

“That is why I am voicing out, asking for assistance to enable me to get a place I can stay so that my life can be safe. As I’m talking to you, I’m just hiding myself so that people will not come and misbehave at my side.

“So, please, if there is any way you can help me to get accommodation where I can be secured as a human being, intelligent people know what I am talking about.

“I don’t need to move or stay anyhow. If you don’t mind, you can assist me. Nothing is too small.” (The Nation)
