A former presidential aide, Reno Omokri has reacted to a publication alleging that he abandoned his legally married wife, Tope Omokri for his United Kingdom-based lover.

According to the viral report, Omokri’s unidentified UK lover also welcomed a child recently.

Reacting to the report, Reno Omokri accused President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration of orchestrating the news to distract him from his planned #HarassBuhariOutOfParis protest scheduled to hold at the Africa-France summit.

“I just read the scandalous story about me, that I will not even want to repeat.

“A Nigerian proverb says the bird flew at night, and the baby died in the morning.

“The story is false. If you look at the platform that originally carried the story, it becomes obvious that it is being sponsored by the Presidency, to distract me from going to Paris, because they know that the Africa-France summit is an international platform and any protest will highlight the failures of General Buhari.

“I have never and can never engage in premarital or extramarital sex. I abhor it. God forbid!

“On a normal day, I would never bother to even respond to such a malicious attack on me by the Buhari administration. And I will not be baited to talk about private family issues publicly. Suffice to say that I have never had, and will never have a child out of wedlock.

“To me, it is best ignored because the devil is a known liar, and that is who has inspired those behind this story.

“Nobody can break my focus. After we are done with the Paris protest, my lawyers and I will sit down to decide if and when we should sue,” he said.
