American woman accuses Reno Omokri of identity theft

An American woman has accused President Goodluck Jonathan’s special assistant on New Media, Reno Omokri, of impersonation and identity theft.


Mr. Omokri had used the now infamous moniker, Wendell Simlin, in his attempt to link the former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Lamido Sanusi, to the terrorist group Boko Haram.



Back in February 2014, Mr. Omokri wound up in a scandal after digital footprint of an article that tried to link the spike in Boko Haram attack to the suspension of Mr. Sanusi as CBN governor was traced to him.

Mr. Omokri allegedly used the pseudonym, Wendel Simlin, in the article circulated to bloggers and journalists but the document digital signature was identical to previous documents Mr. Omokri had sent to PREMIUM TIMES.

The Califonia- based woman, Deborah Campbell, told Sahara Reporters in a series of emails and telephone conversation that her son, based in Hercules, California, is the real Wendel Simlin.

She explained that she is married to Mr. Omokri’s brother-in-law and that the president’s aide exploited the relationship to perpetrate forgery.

“I am the true Wendell Simlin’s mother here in the States. Appalled to find out my son has been a victim of identity theft, judging from the articles I recently read in your newspaper. Reno met my son after I married his wife’s brother,” she said in an email.

“There are pictures on my facebook of Reno’s wife, kids and my ex-husband Godwin Melle. He is Reno’s wife’s brother.”

Mr. Omokri, who was based in the United States before coming to Nigeria to work for Mr. Jonathan, may be soon be facing criminal charges as Ms.Campbell has promised to involve U.S. authorities if her son’s name is not cleared.

Mr. Omokri could not be reached to comment for this story. Calls to his known telephone number did not connect, and he is yet to respond to a text message sent to him.

    1. Ho la la....what a peculiar mess to be in, as with those who go "anonymous" to perpetrate evil or insult people. I assure you the Presidency will look the other way. And APC may follow suit the charges by forming a great ally with the victim against this man. SLS go dey smile under his turban for Kano. Shit mehn lol

    1. Did it occur to you that she recently just found out? She doesn't stay in Nigeria you know?

      Meanwhile, I read from one twitter account that Linda was paid by the presidents men to blog pro jonathan.... Very disappointing, especially when you recall that she's been blogging one sided politics of late.
      Then there's another twitter handle crying woe as he wasn't selected for the London trip to see Ibori in prison, and a few other bloggers who sold out their conscience for the money involved.
      February no far again sha. God will deliver Nigeria.

    2. Flakkie, did you check your claims against Linda's posts? Because she has been very neutral and pro Nigerian in my opinion.

  5. See the kind of desperate people GEJ surrounds himself with.

    It was proved conclusively on twitter last year that Reno was Wendell Simlin.

    So he's actually related to the original Wendell? Shame.

    I hope he's prosecuted for identity theft.

    1. As with FFK who also runs pseudonyms on every social media. He has been bursted several times. Only in his case it wasn't done officially because he doesn't or didn't represent any govt official at the time.

    2. I remember the twitter saga and how Japheth Omojuwa kept emphasising that Reno Omokri is Wendell Simlin...Such desperation that he couldn't just come up with a diff name, he had to use his inlaws'...I know he visits this blog and insults those Anti-GEJ.

  16. I think Sanusi should join the lawsuit. It's very bad to resort to such dirt to drag someone's name in the mud. Couldn't he just make up a name?
    Now I'm sure he's going to be putting pressure on his wife to beg her inlaws on his behalf...

  17. He's American trained criminal,employed by Gej government the past year to attacked individuals who's not in support of his master. Ms Campbell should sue his ass at any California court since she can't get justice in Nigeria. He's sometimes on this blog attacking us under anonymous anytime we speak against their rotten government.

  18. It if not identity fraud.
    I'm sure even in Nigeria, we have lots of people bearing same name.
    identity fraud= use of name, date of birth, social security number and all other info

    1. Exactly my thought.
      Of all places, it's Sahara reporters she went to, or that's where she got the information.
      APC be using Sahara reporters to try harder. Smh

    2. Obviously u are a Jonathanian.. How can u conclude dat she was paid?

      Delete
    3. In America they log on to Sahara report for news alot.so it's only logical she goes there.if it's jerry ganu news Reno should come out and say somthing, after all na voltron

      Delete
    4. So the woman was paid to do what exactly? To claim that her son bears the name when he doesn't?
      Or to lie she's Omokre's in law?
      Or to lie that a post surfaced by that name? If this crime was really committed, then your assertion is biased. If he didn't commit it and accusations came out of the blues, perhaps I would agree with u
