A woman, Veronica Anyim, who was suspected by the senior pastor of the Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Abuja, Paul Enenche, of giving a fake testimony at the church graduated from the Law Department of the National Open University of Nigeria.

Anyim’s video, which went viral on Sunday, showed Enenche questioning the credibility of the woman’s testimony at his church in Abuja.

She claimed to have graduated with a “BSc in Law” from NOUN but was interrupted by Enenche, who accused her of lying.

He told her she didn’t sound like a Law graduate, going by how she spoke. He also told her that there is nothing like a “BSc in Law” and demanded that she leave the pulpit.

Recall that in 2016, NOUN formally announced the suspension of admissions into its Law programme.

The decision, according to its Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Abdallah Adamu, was a sequel to the exclusion of graduates of its Law programme by the Council for Legal Education from attending the Nigerian Law School.

He also premised the decision on the advice of the National Universities Commission that students should be stopped from undertaking the course, pending the resolution of the impasse generated by the refusal of the Law School to allow NOUN graduates to attend its programme.

The Michael & Cecilia Ibru University (MCIU) has announced the appointment of Professor Anthony Kila as its new Pro-Chancellor and Chairman of the Governing Council. This move marks a significant step in the university’s mission to enhance quality education and leadership development in Nigeria.

The appointment, made official in August, was conveyed in a letter signed by the university’s Visitor and Registrar, Dr. (Mrs.) Cecilia Ibru, and Dr. T. Kolo. It confirms the selection of Kila—an esteemed international jurist, political economist, and Jean Monnet Professor—for the university’s top strategic role.

Professor Kila, known for his extensive contributions to education, governance, and international development, brings decades of academic and professional experience to the role. As Pro-Chancellor, he will lead the university’s strategic planning, policy development, and global engagement efforts.

In a statement acknowledging his appointment, Professor Kila expressed appreciation to the university’s Governing Council and pledged to collaborate closely with the Vice-Chancellor, academic staff, and stakeholders to strengthen MCIU’s academic standing and societal impact.

“Education is the most enduring and sustainable investment one can make for the future,” Kila said. “At MCIU, we have the honour and responsibility of shaping the next generation of leaders who will drive positive transformation in Nigeria and beyond.”

In addition to his new role, Professor Kila serves as Director of the Commonwealth Institute of Advanced and Professional Studies (CIAPS) and remains a vocal advocate for educational reform and institutional capacity building.

Founded in 2015 by the Michael & Cecilia Foundation, MCIU is dedicated to academic excellence and community service. The university has previously been guided by notable figures such as Professor Ayo Banjo, Chief Joop Berkhout, and Professor Peter Gbewa Hugbo.

Kila’s appointment is expected to inject renewed energy, strategic direction, and international visibility into the university’s operations. His official inauguration will be held later this year at MCIU’s campus in Delta State.
