I visited Pastor Biodun's church in Abuja one Sunday. After services, his security chief declined to let me interview him.
Pastor Biodun said on Instagram that many people have used similar accusations to try to extort him and the ministry. “I have never in my life raped anybody even as an unbeliever,” he wrote earlier this year on Instagram.
Busola has definitely influenced the conversation around rape in Nigeria. After her interview, I heard that at least one group for survivors swelled past capacity. Esther Uzoma, a human rights lawyer, told me Busola quickly became an “icon” of every woman’s “secret pain.”
But even on the streets, I found a lot of skepticism toward her claims. Her critics said they were just applying appropriate skepticism to unproven allegations. Her supporters said the hostile reaction reveals just how difficult it is for women in the region to speak out.
