In Reno's most recent book, 'Why Jesus Wept', Joe Trippi wrote of him thus "In the ten years I have known Reno Omokri he has always reminded me most of the story of Daniel in the bible. Reno's ability to straddle the worlds of faith and politics without compromising his values has always inspired me and this book will inspire all who read it".

Writing in the same book, Michael Moszinky, CEO and Founder of LONDON, The Drum Awards UK Advertising Agency of the Year 2014, said "Reno is one of the most thoughtful, intelligent and well-meaning people I have met. I very much look forward to the arrival of his new book with great anticipation".

Secretary of State for Africa, both in Washington D.C. He has also represented the Nigerian government at Chatham House in London.


Transformation with Reno Omokri
He was also a signatory of a letter by a group of eminent Nigerians (G 57) that called for the resignation of President Umaru Musa Yar'adua[24] after he was evacuated from Nigeria to Saudi Arabia on November 23, 2009, for a medical emergency without handing over executive powers to his vice, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan and in 2011 he led some Diaspora Nigerians to endorse President Goodluck Jonathan for the 2011 elections.[25]

In 2013, Reno Omokri represented the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, at a national conference on ‘Inter-Faith Dialogue and the Quest for National Security in Nigeria', organized by the Interfaith Activities and Partnership for Peace, IFAPP. Speaking for the President, Omokri urged Christian and Muslim leaders to focus on Jesus as the common Denominator between their two faiths, and caused a stir when he stated on camera that The Quran mentions Jesus by name 25 times, which is five times more than The Quran mentions Mohammed. He also stated that almost every prophet in Judaism and Christianity is accepted in Islam.[26]

Omokri is currently the host of 'Transformations With Reno Omokri', a Christian teaching program broadcast on Comcast (KTLN Chanel 25, Sundays at 2:30PM) DISH Network (Impact Network, Chanel 268, Thursdays at 10pm) and Roku.
