"Jerry (Jeremiah) was admitted into the FUOYE 2015/2016 (Psychology department to be precise). It’s in FUOYE's tradition to issue probation each semester to any student who doesn’t make up to 1.5 CGPA.
"After the first probation, the second and the 3rd semester you are unable to meet up, you will be advised to withdraw. A lot of our classmates were advised to withdraw on resumption of 300 level and Jerry was one of them.
"Prior to that, Jerry had no friends in class and he barely attended class."
Pastor Jeremiah was meant to graduate in 2019
Casting doubts about the possibility of him being a graduate, the lady said he was meant to graduate in March 2019 with his mates. She said:
"If you check his profile, he calls himself a psychologist because he was once a student of psychology and was meant to graduate with his mates in March 2019.
"I don’t know if Jerry has an educational graduate certificate after I left FUOYE but the date will never be a 2019 date and I doubt if Jerry tried getting back to school cos a lot of our mates who were asked to withdraw rewrote their JAMB and got back into school and a good number of them graduated last session while some are in currently in their final year."
Legit.ng sent messages to Pastor Jeremiah's WhatsApp lines to get comments on the allegations Chef Dammy labelled against him, but he has yet to reply at the time of this report.
