A former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri, has appealed to former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, to withdraw a petition she wrote to the Inspector General of Police, Usman Baba, demanding the prosecution of blogger and social media influencer, Japheth Omojuwa, for alleged fraud. Omokri, in a Facebook post on Friday, implored Ezekwesili to show Omojuwa the “love of God” and “forgive” all that the blogger had allegedly done. Buzzfeed had reported that Alpha Reach ran a social media campaign for the release of alleged fraudster, Alex Saab, who is wanted in the United States. The news medium further reported that Ezekwesili’s name was listed as a director in company documents filed at the Corporate Affairs Commission. The former minister said Omojuwa didn’t seek her consent before listing her as a director in his company.
