Instead of wasting space with meaningless wailing, can’t you help Sowore reply to the points raised?
Even if only one. You would have made some use of the space.
I hope that you learned something. Thank me later.

wwwihy:
Reno ,the envious speak from the heart about morality; they are consumed by hunger and begrudging. They tolerate, when no one else listens; and with the spur of spite, they applaud another's prosperity.

All envy is proportionate to desire; we are uneasy at the attainments of another, according as we think our own happiness would be advanced by the addition of that which he withholds from us.

How does this wailing and ranting answer any of the falsehoods challenged by Reno?
Who did this to you

My only question is where does Reno O. get the money to sustain his family abroad if he is not a pen robber and money launderer.

How is this an answer to even one of Sowore’s lies exposed by Reno

jericco1:
Someone should surmise

How much will you pay for the work, since you have identified yourself as one of Buhari’s lazy youths

Imagine all the mumu united folks taking sides with useless Reno. Don't you mumus stop for a minute and understand this is not Nigeria and that the foundation must have done their due diligence and know Sahara Reporters, Sowore and of course useless Reno very well? Imagine Reno making a fool of himself as always. They have credible facts based information from CIA, FBI, etc.

So Everyother Nigerian abroad is also a pen robber and money launderer.

Lol. All these zombies sef. What is bitterness here? Can you refute what Reno said? Can Sowore sincerely come out to say those stories he published about Reno and GEJ's govt as outlined in Reno's letter are true? If they are not true, did he retract those stories and apologize (at least he deleted one of the story and apologized, the one he alleged Patience Jonathan caused a plane crash). Giving a grant to such media organization that spread lies and deceive it's audience is dangerous for this country.

Zombie, these are the issues, not bitterness!

IamWonderful:

This is the media aide (Garba Shehu) to your "Mr integrity" calling Sowore a Rascal. I guess you must have read the news here on Nairaland.

Useless zombies

We don't expect Reno omokri to pat saharareporters at the back...this platform exposed them while in power that it affected their chances in 2015 election.

All the cases Mr Reno listed concerns the former President Jonathan...i still expect him to continue denying it.

Now its MacArthur foundation, not Ford foundation again. SMH

MacArthur Foundation should be aware of the fact that Nigerians are not all daft.... if they continue to Sponsor Sahara Reporters or give whatsoever donation to Sowore to continue his lies and propaganda, a time will come when the people will rise up and demand for justice for sponsoring negative propaganda aimed at creating hate and disunity among Nigerians.

Were Niggerians ever united?

To be a special adviser on new media for the biggest African country for 5 years is not beans. The salary earned can build 2 hotels with good retirement plans.

Going after sowore finance is the only way to shut him up. He already out of favour with the people in government.

Where do you get money to buy data to ask rubbish questions if you are not a thief?...comment intelligently.

Sowore is still a man I prefer as a president to clean all the rubbish

Someone who lies or blackmails for money ?

ladididanlami:
We have always known Sahara Reporters as a media house which promotes lies, hate, propaganda and in turn sows seed of discord which threatens our unity as a people in Nigeria.

We are all aware of the negative manner Sahara Reporters media outfit was used as a tool to promoting negative propaganda in the country as a run up to the 2015 general election.

In the aftermath of the election and when Omoyele Sowore and his media outfit didn't get no recognition from the ruling All progressives congress, APC, under the leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari, he then turned on the government with continuous propaganda.

In all honesty, sowore is a propagandist who uses his media outfit to promote hate and lies.... and he getting sponsorship from MacArthur Foundation is an indication that MacArthur foundation is sponsoring propaganda, lies and hate which tend to promote disunity and chaos in the country.

He would have been better dead in DSS custody. The guy is a miscreant. He helped Pmb to power, he expected soft landing but got none, he contested but lost not even 3rd runner up and he started screaming revolution. Obviously he his power thirsty and not better than the so corrupt public holders. His getting power might even take Nigeria more backward. Am glad pmb showed him is place. Something Goodkuck never did

reno omokrimina created many monikers to post and comments on nairaland. Kai pain of losing an election shouldn't make a pastor missed heaven.

After all jona & bubu still dine & wine yesterday. mama pay pay sef wasn't this pained...

Lies.

What lies?

And where is the evidence Tinubu bribed Sowore?

Let me guess, you have none but you want people to believe you.

Abeg carry your beer parlour gist go one side.

lol, i must have touched a raw one. Reno ve alreadly chronicled the facts and exposed Sowore for the fraud he is. All these ur wailing wont change anything. I remember hw he even tried to claim Peter Obi was an ex dealer, and hw we clapped yall back. One thing is clear, anybody standing in Tinubus way is automatically attacked by Sowore. From Fashola. Ambode, to Akeredulu and nw its Malami and the cabal after the disgrace and humiliation the cabal handed him . Its no coincidence. Just cos Sowore exposed Tinubu in the early 2000, doesnt mean they cnt settle and work together.

did I mention Tinubu in my comment Or do you have a personal problem with him?

These are writeup to advance personal interest and attract sympathy for former President Jonathan. We now know better.

Reno is such a child. Too childish. Stupid people claiming to be pastors in Nigeria. Thugs in fine clothing.

KikBuhari2Daura:
Open Letter To The MacArthur Foundation re Omoyele Sowore and Sahara Reporters

Dear John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation Office of Grants Management mailto:4answers@macfound.org

I write to you in respect of Mr Omoyele and Saharareporters, ostensibly an online news website, which you have given a total sum of $1.3 million.

In giving the Sahara Reporters Media Foundation this grant, you indicated that Sahara Reporters were a non-profit media organization that works to advance transparency and accountability in Nigeria. 

This assertion concerning Saharareporters is not accurate. It is false, and I will now prove so with documentary evidence.

Mr. Omoyele Sowore, the founder of Sahara Reporters Media Foundation, uses Sahara Reporters as a medium to settle scores, blackmail political opponents and mislead the general public via the publication of outright lies that he knows to be lies at the time of publication. 

For instance, on July 11, 2020, Mr Sowore used saharareporters to publish a video interview featuring him, in which he libelled me by alleging that I had been fired by my then boss, President Goodluck Jonathan, as one of his spokesmen, for engaging in “many criminal activities.”

On the same day, President Goodluck Jonathan released a statement stating that he never fired me, and that I served as throughout his tenure with distinction and offered ‘meritorious’ service to Nigeria, and continue to enjoy his gratitude and confidence, as well as the good esteem of many Nigerian citizens. 

My record of service is with the office of the Secretary of the Government of the Federation of Nigeria, and I have my payslips until May of 2015 when my tenure lapsed. 

I am a number one bestselling writer, received at the highest level of governments in many democratic nations, as well as honoured as the Humanitarian of the Year, 2019, at the Hollywood Weekly Magazine Film Festival. I have never been arrested or charged with a crime in my life. Upon Mr Sowore’s claims, I am now in receipt of police clearance certificates from the Nigerian Police Force Headquarters, Abuja, Nigeria, as well as the UK Police, stating that I have no past arrest or convictions to my name. 

Mr Sowore is presently in Abuja, where the office of the Secretary of the Government of the Federation of Nigeria is located. He made no efforts to investigate or to contact me. He gave that interview purely out of spite because I had exposed him to the Nigerian public as a blackmailer.

This is because on February 14, 2015, two weeks to the Nigerian election, Mr Omoyele Sowore had caused Sahara Reporters Media Foundation to knowingly publish lies against me to the extent that I was an armed robber, who robbed a house and stole the sum of ₦25 million. 

He refused every legal and humanitarian overture to him to retract the story, even though he received irrefutable evidence, provided by me to him, that showed that his story was a lie. He maintained this stance until my New York-based lawyer wrote a letter to the Ford Foundation, which had also paid Mr Sowore’s Sahara Reporters Media Foundation, vast sums of money. 

He caused that story to be published to affect the outcome of the 2015 Nigerian Presidential election, in which his surrogate candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari, was running. 

His actions caused me great embarrassment and financial plus emotional loss. Affected the building of an orphanage that I was building, and deprived orphans of the care and accommodation that they desperately needed.

Mr Sowore is now using Sahara Reporters Media Foundation to assassinate the characters of people of integrity that he dislikes such as Dr. Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, a current candidate for the esteemed position of Director-General of the World Trade Organisation, amongst many others. He has had a long history of publishing outright falsehoods against her. 

Below are 15 verifiable lies Mr Omoyele Sowore caused Saharareporters to publish, and the dates at which these lies were published. I urge the MacArthur Foundation to ask an independent media audit body to investigate these stories to determine if they were ever true and if Messrs Omoyele Sowore ever published a retraction after discovering that they were not true. 

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan Looted ₦32b From Bayelsa State, and is the ‘Richest President In Africa’ (Published on Feb 2, 2015)

* That the then First Lady of Nigeria, Dame Patience Jonathan caused the Dana Air crash, which killed 153 people, because she was wasting time landing in her Presidential Jet (Published on June 4, 2012 and then deleted without apology).

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan gave out gold plated iPhones to guests at his daughter’s wedding (Published on April 13, 2014).

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan was too drunk to deliver his speech at the AU (Published on May 25, 2013).

* That $49 billion was missing from the Federal Government’s treasury (Published on various dates in February, 2014).

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan did not care about Chibok Girls and Rejected British Offer To Rescue Kidnapped Chibok Schoolgirls (Published on various dates and officially debunked by the British Government on Mar 8, 2017).

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan led a 600 man delegation to the UN (Published on September 22, 2013).

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan team threatened a blogger with death (Published on Apr 25, 2011).

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan was persecuting Rotimi Amaechi (Published on Oct 26, 2014).

* That PDP and former President Goodluck Jonathan were behind Boko Haram, a radical Islamic Terrorism group (published on multiple dates).

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan was a habitual drunkard (Published on Nov 22, 2013).

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan bribed pastors with ₦7 billion (Published on Feb 19, 2015). 

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan shared $1.1 billion between himself, Attorney General Bello Adoke, and several cronies and ministers (Published on May 27, 2012). 

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan and his cronies stole $20 billion in less than 3 years from just sales of crude oil alone (Published on July 12, 2014).

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan is Worth $120 Million Dollars! (Published on Oct 14, 2014). 

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan is the sponsor of Niger Delta militants (Published on multiple dates).

* That former President Goodluck Jonathan dishonesty shielded the Abacha family from prosecution after reaching a corrupt deal with them (Published on May 15, 2015).

Mr Sowore never retracted these stories or offered an apology. That he knowingly used them for political blackmail can be proved from an interview he granted on April 7, 2018, where in a fit of anger, he told the then Nigerian Minister of Communications, Mr Adebayo Shittu, as follows “I am the head of a media movement that brought the government that is sitting into power”. 

From the above, many Nigerians are asking if it is the MacArthur Foundation’s agenda to sponsor an undemocratic regime change in African nations using intense and sustained political propaganda and blackmail. 

Please use your good offices to look into these issues.

Wwwihy are you incapable of analytical thinking like this?

Wwwihy is anything that criticizes those you worship always seen as an attack.

I’ll answer.

Because you are not supposed to worship any other but God who alone is faultless. And you can never go wrong worshipping Him.

A man brings facts to correct a damaging position by an influential organization, and you call it envy.

I can almost bet you’re Yoruba.

Na dem dey always find fault in truth. Especially when it hits home.

Nonsense.

Reno alias wendel, stop replying my message...and stop being tribalistic bigot... what has Yoruba got to do with my post?
