An American identified as Mike Arnold has accused Nigerian author and social media personality Reno Omokri of deceit, alleging that Omokri once posed with luxury cars that did not belong to him and claimed ownership online.
In a detailed post shared on X (formerly Twitter), Arnold recounted that Omokri had filmed and flaunted two cars belonging to one of his friends, later posting them online as his own.
“Once, he posted a video flaunting luxury cars, claiming they were his. Two belonged to a friend of mine. Reno visited, rode in them, filmed them, and claimed ownership. A total fabrication,” Arnold wrote.
Arnold, who said he had observed Omokri’s behavior for some time, explained that the incident prompted him to start “watching closely,” suggesting that the self-acclaimed activist often misrepresents facts to appear more influential or wealthy than he actually is.
The American further accused Omokri of other acts of deceit, including allegedly fabricating meetings with top Nigerian officials and twisting narratives surrounding Christian persecution in Nigeria.
Arnold’s post has since generated widespread reactions on social media, with many Nigerians debating his claims and recalling Omokri’s controversial public statements in recent years.
THE TRUTH ABOUT RENO OMOKRI IS SAD-
I’ve seen it up close. Last year, on his birthday safari in Kenya. He stayed at my home in Texas. Most recently, he hosted me in Abuja.
Reno doesn’t lie like most liars. He lies calm, cool, constant. Up close, he’s reptilian. Chilling. Soulless. Yet so charming.
Once, he posted a video flaunting luxury cars, claiming they were his. Two belonged to a friend of mine. Reno visited, rode in them, filmed them, and claimed ownership. A total fabrication. I stayed quiet then but started watching closely.
On my recent fact-finding trip about Nigeria’s persecution crisis, he promised meetings with Tinubu, NSA Ribadu, and the Sultan of Sokoto. None happened. Looking back, those promises were props for his narrative—for clout and manipulation.
(At his birthday last year, big names showed up expecting Goodluck Jonathan. That was a lie. They left fast, dodging his shameless PR stunt. They thanked me for showing them the quickest escape route on a map.)
In Abuja, after 30 hours of travel, Reno pulled me into a photo-op with the compromised CAN chairman. I barely got 60 seconds to change my shirt. He whispered, “Don’t mention you just arrived.”
In the meeting, he implied we’d been there longer. He took credit for trips I’ve funded, planned, and endured over six years — presenting it as part of the “fact finding mission” that he had organized. He repeated this with the next group.
On live TV, he called me the current Mayor of Blanco, Texas. False. He knows it. He also said I’m a Republican mayor—we don’t even have partisan municipal elections.
I haven’t been active in any party for 30 years. He claimed I’m a personal friend of Ted Cruz. Also false. I shook Cruz’s hand in a receiving line a decade ago. That’s it.
He introduced my travel companion as a prominent Republican filmmaker. Not true. My friend does hobby projects, nothing major in decades. I don’t know what party he favors.
How do you know if Reno Omokri is lying? His lips are moving.
This isn’t bitterness. It’s accountability.
When someone denies genocide, twists truth, and poses as a “Christian voice,” character matters.
“The one who practices deceit shall not dwell in My house; he who speaks lies shall not continue before My eyes” (Psalm 101:7).
Reno, I don’t hate you. But I can’t cover for you. I’ve seen too much.
Lying to inflate yourself is one thing. Lying to cover up the Christian genocide raging in Nigeria is a bridge too far.
People must know Reno Omokri is a pathological, habitual, calculating, self-serving liar—from someone who knows him personally—so they won’t trust his sleazy attempts to bury the blood of tens of thousands of Nigerian martyrs with the manure spewing from his mouth. It’s hard to fathom. I’ve never seen anything so stone-cold evil.
If he doesn’t repent, Omokri will go down as Nigeria’s Joseph Goebbels, cast into the lake of eternal fire.
He’s gaslighting a nation while Christians and innocent Nigerians suffer.
Reno Omokri has the blood of innocents on his lying tongue. He doesn’t care. What’s an ocean of martyrs’ blood to him, so long as he secures the phantom appointment Tinubu dangles before him? I’m convinced he sees the victims as lesser humans. A pure sociopath.
Most Nigerians view him as a perpetually flip-flopping court jester. But wth his latest flip into the killing fields, he is now more like Stephen King‘s IT – an evil clown, in the gutter, luring innocent people to their death.
Reno claims he keeps meticulous records. So do I. This could get fun. 👍🏽
By the way, his grand plan is to run for vice president under NSA Ribadu. 🤣
I almost hope it happens. Nigerians worldwide—from the highest to the lowest—revile him as a self-deluded tool. An emasculated, narcissistic peacock. Peter Obi’s used toilet paper would poll better. Even soggy, it has more integrity.
But if you’re a Nigerian reading this, you probably already knew that.
