About James Okoye

James Okoye is an investigative journalist and fact-checker with a background in digital forensics and data journalism. Before joining OMGHive, James worked for a non-profit investigative outlet specializing in corporate accountability and political transparency.

He brings the same investigative rigor to the internet's most spectacular fails — holding institutions, companies, and public figures accountable while documenting the moments that reveal how systems break down. James believes that spectacular failures are often the most revealing windows into how power actually works.

At OMGHive, James leads the Fails and Investigations sections, applying professional fact-checking standards and a healthy skepticism to every story he covers. When James writes it, you can trust it.
