Nigerians have slammed Anyim Vera for seeking accommodation help to maintain her ‘celebrity’ status.
Glamtush reports that Nigerians have called out Vera Anyim, the lady who became famous because of the controversy that trailed her recent testimony at the Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Abuja, for asking Nigerians for support in finding secure accommodation.
In a video that became viral on Thursday, Anyim who now describes herself as a celebrity called on Nigerians to help her secure a new accommodation.
The move, however, didn’t go well with some social media users who stormed the comment section to lambast the Dunamis member over her recent outings.
Bellow are some of the comments:
Jasper Aniet Louis, who tweets as @trueAFICIONADO, expressed concerns about how she would manage to pay the rent after the initial payment if Nigerians assist her in finding a place to live.
@trueAFICIONADO wrote, “Instead to look for employment, or business to do, na comfortable accommodation, she is looking for? Who will help continue the payment of the rent?
Another tweep, Alfred The Hermit who identifies as @OrokwaDas1, said her request should be to her pastor instead of forgiving him as compensation.
@OrokwaDas1 wrote, “The opportunity to get some cool cash from Yahoo pastor that defamed your character, you said your forgive, na Nigerians wey no do you anything, na us now go change your accommodation……sumthing dey worry you.”
Mine, who tweets as @Mr_PMO78 stated, “Dunamis Church is rich enough to get you an accommodation and not the strongly Nigerians.”
On the other hand, a Facebook user, Sonny Kilete called on Nigerians to sponsor her master’s degree, saying, “She should be helped with a scholarship for her master’s degree in the UK.”
Another user, Odey Marshal, stated, “Nigerians must finish what they have started. She is a divine project and can never be abandoned.”
Another user, Anthony Oparah, said she deserved a better accommodation that would befit her current status as a celebrity.
Oparah, wrote, “People made her a celebrity. She deserves comfortable accommodation to befit her present status. People who carried her up should not leave her alone, they should complete the good work for the people made celebrity. Don’t forget she also needs to give out to the needy as a celebrity. She needs more funds.”
Another user, PrinceJude Chukwu Abuchi, stated, “Poverty no good but people go feel say na vanity. Small recognition mama Vera turn am celebrity.”
Sanni Olatunde wrote, “Someone that didn’t even know what she studied in school. If not that her daddy overreacted, how she got her law degree could have been investigated. I can’t stop wondering about the authenticity of that NOUN.”
Iyanya Johnny wrote, “You are popular, that’s different from being a celebrity. Now you want help? I thought they said she is a police officer.”
Chidozie Emebie stated, “This is not right madam. Whoever advised you to make this video does not mean well for you. Please, your life is safe. There is no need to be afraid now. God has really blessed you and more is coming. You have to apply wisdom and discretion.”
Edward Ojodomo said, ” This very video has the capability to tarnish your good image, damage your godly reputation and deny you of spectrum of potential favour and blessings that are already revolving around you. Take down this video ASAP and keep hope alive to seeing how God will transform your life miraculously soon. It’s just a candid advice ma.”
Alhassan Anthony wrote, “I thought you were a police officer, why are you afraid of security? I thought you had a gun, let’s forget about this play that we are playing on social media. You are a product of Grace, go back to your former house, nothing will happen to you. Don’t beg anybody.”
Ekanade Samuel wrote, “Madam, don’t abuse the privilege you have now, it will not last forever. Appreciate God for what He has done for you and move on with your life. According to Dr Pst Paul Enenche, you won’t have the stage forever, make sense on time.’ Selah!”
Lois Adams stated, “She needs to be laid off the service, if she doesn’t stop. She is constituting nuisance.”
Recall that before this, the Senior Pastor of the church, Paul Enenche, interrupted Vera’s testimony of being a law graduate of the Open University of Nigeria in a viral video on social media.
Enenche tagged her testimony as a lie. This, however, did not sit well with Nigerians who demanded an apology from the pastor.
The church, however, apologised to Anyim after the public backlash.
Anyim was offered a sponsored vacation at Portland Resorts Hotel in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
However, on her return, she claimed that her residence was no longer safe.
“I want to say to Nigerians, you know this thing that happened is a thing of joy, I never dreamed of it, it came this moment, I never dreamed 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 stressed.
