Singer Lara George has demanded a ‘proper’ apology from senior pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre Paul Enenche following a statement he released on his reaction to a woman Vera Anyim who gave a testimony in his church on Sunday.
Enenche had accused Anyim of lying after she said she got a bachelor of science degree in law from the National Open University of Nigeria.
After it was confirmed she truly graduated from the institution, Enenche maintained on Monday that he queried her because her knowledge of basic English was poor.
Reacting to the statement in an Instagram post on Wednesday, Lara George opined that the apology was an insult to Vera’s injury, adding that she would not have been treated that way if she came from a wealthy background.
She wrote: “Nah! It’s not nice. Doesn’t matter who you are, we should all treat others as we would like to be treated. She doesn’t speak as well as you think she should, therefore you can conclude she is telling a lie? Based on the way she speaks?
“The way she speaks is a reflection of what we have allowed in our society. Every politician that you coddled instead of speaking the truth to, who stole funds that should have gone into healthcare, or education, or any other public welfare initiative…… well…… that’s the outcome. Graduates who speak like that. And you…. contributed to the condition of that society. The contributions from people like her is what has built the edifice you sit in. And while you sit there, we don’t hear you speak for the voiceless or defend the helpless.
“Nah. It’s not nice. Apologize to her properly. Unequivocally. That write-up that you had your people do, is really an insult on top of her injury. You know this. You would never dare address the matter that way if she was from a wealthy background.
“At the end of the day, the way you treat someone who you think you will never need, is the true indicator of your character.”
