Following his crying out on alleged threat to his life, wife and child, Independent Investigative Journalist, David Hundeyin has asked Reno Omokri, a former aide to ex-president Jonathan, which of the wives and children he means.
Newsonline reports that David Hundeyin, publisher of WestAfricaWeek, a news magazine, stated that the outcry of Reno Omokri over alleged threat to his life was unfounded.
The 2020 People Journalism Prize for Africa winner, David, asked Reno, “Is it your legally married wife Tuokpe whom you abandoned in Antioch, California to chase the Ethiopian babe you impregnated and are now living with in London?”
Reno Omokri had stated that his life and that of his family is being threatened by Labour Party presidential candidate supporters.
On his social media handle, Reno alleged that “The threats are too much. My life is at risk. If anything happens to me, my wife, my children, or siblings, the world should hold Peter Obi responsible. He has raised a horde of intolerant and violent Obidients who just want to replace Buhari’s tyranny with theirs!”
Reacting to the alleged threat to Reno’s life, David slammed, “OK I’m going to bite because I’ve had just about enough of this guy.”
David continued, “Which of the wives and children, Reno? Is it your legally married wife Tuokpe whom you abandoned in Antioch, California to chase the Ethiopian babe you impregnated and are now living with in London?
“Since when did you care about your wife and children, Reno? Was it when you abandoned Tuokpe with your 3 children including a special needs kid all by herself in California and you had a child with another woman you’re living with?”

A report by The Will on May 21, alleged, “how Reno, who likes to project a pious lifestyle even when his own personal life is the direct opposite of what he preaches, abandoned Tuokpe who is a school teacher and his three children in Antioch, a small town in northern California, USA where he lived with them and relocated to London about three years ago to be with his side chick, Hanna. Still legally married to Tuokpe whom he conducted traditional marriage rites on as well as a church wedding before they both relocated to the US, Reno refers to Hanna as his wife. Reno, who claims to be a pastor/preacher, has fathered a child, Ebele with Hanna. The child is named after former president Goodluck Jonathan. The controversial former aide, abandoned his family for reasons best known to him and until recently, allegedly refused to contribute to the upkeep of his family, one of whom is a special needs child.”
Recall that over 3000 tweeps had reported Reno Omokri for inciting religious and ethnic hatred among Nigerians through his social media posts.
Reno commenting on Peter Obi’s interview on Arise TV, a national television program said, “Has Peter Obi achieved for people what Kwankwaso has achieved in Kano? Northwest University. Educating the masses at home and abroad. Lifting close to a million out of poverty. What exactly makes you a pilot and Kwankwaso a mere driver? Highly inflated self-opinion!”
Reno further said, “If I were Kwankwaso, I would do a voiceover of Peter Obi Arise interview in Hausa. Let everyday people in Kano and the Northwest listen to him describe Kwankwaso and other Presidential candidates the way he did. Such hubris! You are a pilot. They are mere drivers?”
Reno’s comments are what Nigerians, mostly youth are reporting to Twitter management for immediate sanction of his account.
