Anyim Vera, Dunamis International Gospel Center, DIGC member who went viral after she was accused of lying during a testimony has been arrested by the Police.
It is unclear what specific breach of etiquette led to Vera’s arrest by the police. The DIGC has not issued any official statement regarding the incident. Vera’s situation has sparked a debate on social media about the authenticity of testimonies in churches and the need for proper verification before sharing personal stories. The outcome of Vera’s arrest and any legal actions taken against her remain to be seen.
Vera was reportedly detained by the Nigeria Police Force on Tuesday over a breach of etiquette.
Recall that Vera’s story had gone viral after the Senior Pastor of the church, Dr Paul Enenche obstructed her testimony at the Church Headquarters.
Enenche, who wondered how a supposed law graduate would speak incorrect English, asked some questions for clarification.
Vera, in her response, said she did a BSc in law at the National Open University of Nigeria, prompting the clergy to send her back to her seat, saying the testimony was a lie.
He, however, apologized to her, saying he never intended to disgrace Vera, when he interjected while she was testifying.
Shortly after the incident, Vera solicited financial help from Nigerians to get better accommodation.
She claimed her current residence was no longer safe and conducive for her status.
