A former aide to President Goodluck Jonathan on social media, Reno Omokri, has provided overwhelming evidence to debunk the claim by former Governorship candidate in the 2020 Kogi State election, Natasha Akpoti, of lying that he flirted with her while he was in government.
She had said: “Dear Reno Omokri, I understand how boring and bitter life must be for you away in the US on asylum. No more access to your numerous iPhone 2 girlfriends… most of whom you got into Sure P through your office as an SA to President Goodluck Jonathan. Weren’t you married then?
“I rejected your silly advances in 2014 at the Villa’s banquet hall during President Uhuru Kenyatta’s reciprocated visit… I gave you a fake name and a false contact number but,” she posted.
But Omokri provided overwhelming evidence to deflate the accusations from the beautiful politician that he flirted with her on the day the Nigerian government held a banquet for the visiting Kenyan President, Uhuru Kenyatta.
According to the evidence supplied by Omokri, it turns out that he was not in the country on the day of the banquet.
Evidence from his travel passport shows that he was in the United States at the time. There is also a time-stamped photograph he took with his son in the United States at the exact date of the banquet.
Many Nigerians have lambasted Akpoti for falsely accusing Omokri of making sexual advances at her.
@Alaye_100 said: “Reno attacked a lady for wanting to be his sugar babe & Natasha Akpoti accused him of trying to toast her at the villa during GEJ & that she even had to give him a fake number. The event she cited happened at a time his passport shows he wasn’t in the country. Serious drama.”
@novieverest said: “Reno Omokri just used evidence to destroy all of Natasha Akpoti’s allegations. Well, let’s see how Natasha Akpoti will return.”
@tejiriamadin said: “Didn’t you see @NatashaAkpoti is a liar? A wicked and evil fabricator. Did you see the proofs Reno provided?”
@Henrydrake said: “Natasha Akpoti should have known that @renoomokri keeps receipts. She just threw herself into the abyss, cheaply. But then, why would a woman resort to sophistry in a bid to bring a man’s reputation to question?”
