However, the initial stories about this Kenyan birth certificate say that other Kenyan birth certificates at the same time are on the same template. I’m not ready to say it’s a fake based on the two birth certs sharing the same template.

Same book and page? How likely is that?

The forger's error was being too lazy to make up new numbers, assuming Bomford's cert would not be found.

On the other hand, maybe he just underestimated the half-life of his forgery. He had to know the game would be up when the actual government records turned out not to contain the alleged facts.

Too lazy to change a number? I think it was intentional.
