I’ve reached out to her – Pastor Enenche shares step taken to pacify lady he accused of giving fake testimony

• Paul Enenche has finally emerged from the shadows to address the fiery storm of controversy surrounding his apparent humiliation of a church member who professed to be a law graduate.
• Taking to his social media platforms, the pastor unleashed a meticulously crafted press statement aimed at quelling the raging tempest of public outcry.
• Within the depths of this statement, Enenche painstakingly elucidated that the public humiliation was never his desired outcome nor his intent.

The senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Paul Enenche, has finally broke his silence on the swirling controversy surrounding a lady who testified about her educational achievements during a church service.

Pastor Enenche clarified that he never intended to disgrace the testifier, Vera Ayim, when he interjected during her testimony on Sunday.

Recall that during the service, Vera took to the altar of Dunamis Church to share her testimony, recounting how God had blessed her as the “only graduate in her family.” She proudly proclaimed that she had earned a “B.Sc in Law” from the Open University of Nigeria (NOUN).

Pastor Enenche’s questioning ensued, prompting him to inquire about the specifics of her degree. Vera confidently reiterated that she had indeed graduated with a “B.Sc in Law.

Aggrieved, the clergyman accused the Vera of lying. The issued had irked much frenzy on social Media with Nigerians asking Enenche to apologize..

In response, Enenche clarified that his actions stemmed from his and the church’s commitment to upholding excellence and truthfulness.

Speaking through Sylvester Edoh, his Personal Assistant, Enenche assured that he had personally reached out to Vera to address the matter.

A statement signed by Edoh reads:

“A scenario was created on Sunday the 14th April, 2024 at the Glory Dome, the Global Headquarters of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, when Ms Anyim Veronica Nnenna came out to testify of how God helped her graduate from the University, thus making her the first person to attain that feat in her family.

“These were the immediate triggers for the said scenario:First, listening to the testifier’s expressions as it borders on basic spoken English, conveys the impression that the minimum standard expectation of a graduate, especially a graduate of Law was not met. Second, stating that she studied Law for 10 years begged the question of what her degree actually was.

“Third, she was unable to state exactly what the correct degree was for Law which is LLB, rather she said it was a BSc in Law which is largely unknown as a Law degree in Nigeria and possibly globally.These prompted the Senior Pastor, Dr. Paul Enenche to stop the testimony immediately as a product of a “lie.”

“However, relief came when it was later confirmed that she actually graduated from a university. It must be pointed out clearly here that embarrassing the testifier publicly with the attendant media frenzy was never intended; whatever happened was under the spur of the moment.

“The action of the Senior Pastor was rather based on his and the church’s aversion to seeming mediocrity and any appearance of untruth.

“While we remain resolute in our passion for excellence, intolerance of mediocrity and falsehood, we wish to reiterate the fact that no harm or hurt was ever intended by the Senior Pastor against Ms. Anyim Veronica.

“The Senior Pastor feels deeply concerned and had already reached out to her. As a Commission, we regret every inconvenience, hurt and embarrassment this unfortunate scenario has caused to Ms Anyim Veronica Nnenna.”

Enenche assured of his commitment towards Vera’s physical welfare as well as her spiritual growth.
