That he got away with this for so long speaks loudly. Only the mind numbing fear of being call a racist possibly held victims back. Diversity at work.
Years ago back in the 1950’s, he would not have gone a month without the Bobbies at his door.

Hello, Peter-!
Not sure about the racist concern on this case.
The young girls were within his church...think of the cases with the Catholic Church and young boys...boys and parents would be threatened with the ‘you’re destroying the CHURCH’ speeches if they want/wanted to go forward.
So, I think that might be in play on that level....
And the places that performed abortions...they’re only too happy to be paid for abortions...why would folks who have no regard for life to begin with be bothered to report a repeat customer?
So, on that level at least with these people, I do not think the ‘racist’ accusation would be the concern.
Now, if the girls had gone to the authorities or their parents had, and the authorities not done anything, I would easily see and agree with your point.
He’s definitely filth, as is his wife, and are the abortionists.
I would truly venture the girls were simply terrified of his perceived spiritual authority. The parents may have also been affected by that same worry...
When people truly place their faith in the wrong hands it can be so terrible.
I grew up Catholic and I can recall reading and hearing all about ‘the folks in the Church who want simply to destroy the Church,’ and can easily see this type of fear used by others.
I’m guessing his followers were fellow Nigerians.
