Pastor Enenche’s accusation that a church member gave fake testimony has triggered mixed reactions.
Some defend his stance, while others criticize his approach.
This incident has sparked a wider debate on church leadership and handling testimony.
Nigerians are calling on Pastor Paul Enenche of Dunamis International Gospel Centre in Abuja to issue a formal apology to Anyim Vera, a church member he publicly rebuked and accused of dishonesty during a testimony session.
VerseNews gathered that in a video that went viral on Sunday, Enenche interrupted Vera’s testimony, questioning her claim of graduating with a “BSc in Law” from the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN).
He suggested her speech did not reflect the educational background she claimed and declared there was no such degree as “BSc in Law.”
Enenche instructed Vera to leave the pulpit, causing widespread criticism of his harsh approach. However, further evidence emerged on social media confirming Vera’s degree as LLB Law from NOUN.
This discovery, along with her name on a list of recent graduates, intensified the calls for Enenche to apologize for his actions.
Social media reactions have been mixed. Some defend Enenche’s position, arguing that Vera’s lack of eloquence may have led to the misunderstanding. Others criticize his tone and approach, calling it unnecessarily condescending and demanding a public apology.
Observers also pointed out that Enenche’s confrontation may have damaged Vera’s dignity and trust in the church.
One social media user, Soulmedika, urged Pastor Enenche to apologize profusely, while others stressed the need for a more respectful and constructive approach to such situations.
The incident has sparked ongoing discussions about the responsibilities of church leaders when addressing members’ testimonies and the need for compassion and sensitivity in handling misunderstandings.
