EDO YOUTHS AND MISPLACED PRIORITIES: written by Osazee Edigin read it on Tafia world.

About two days ago I took out time to go through posts by one Ambassador Dion Osagie and the heralding comments with somewhat attacking posts raised by some Edo youths in response to his post concerning Captain Hosa Okunbor.
In some of the responses by some of the youths, I was made to know that Capt. Hosa is a philanthropist, a man that has assisted many in various ways and an owner of different companies which are not domiciled in Edo state anyway which formed part of Dion’s outburst.
I know for sure Dion Osagie is not a perfect young man but I have been following this young man’s activities both online and offline, I have noticed that his direction has always been the upliftment of the downtrodden and empowerment of Edo youths. I also know that he is a citizen of America but has decided to spend most of his days in Nigeria to make a point to the effect that, a difference can be made. His outburst against Capt. Hosa, a billionaire whom he expected to have empowered the youths collectively instead of random approach may have been too harsh but that is not enough for any youth to label him as jobless and a blackmailer. The young man has done well for himself by providing self employment for himself and others going by the little investigation I have done about him personally.

I became ashamed of some of the youths that lambasted him on social media because of their personal gains from Captain Hosa, let me inform some of you that, there are few youths in the current government that did not need to attack others’ views to get favour with their masters. Philip Shaibu the current Deputy Governor and Taiwo Akinrele the Chief of Staff did not need to take on facebook to insult whosoever talks about their principals in a manner they don’t like to get to where they are today. That Captain Hosa paid your expired house rent, gave you a job, married for you, assisted you to have a car or even paid your school fees is not enough to try to shut out a man that was angry because he expected him to create an expansive employment to the teeming Edo youths.
I also took out valuable time to read through his apology to Captain Hosa and I saw very good business ideas or concepts he shared in there, an idea some of you can never share with the man, I can tell you, if Capt. Hosa should give priority to those ideas, in no distant time Dion Osagie will be flying with him in his private jet everywhere as they discuss businesses that will create employment while some of you will still be waiting for him to assist you in one way or the other. I tell you the truth, Dion will be of more value to him than some of you that think attacking Dion will give you a proper place in his sight.
Your attacks on Dion was not necessary, he was only expressing his disappointment that Capt Hosa has not invested in the state by creating empowerment for his people, what one would have expected was that some of you should have enlighten him of the various steps being taken for the empowerment of the people instead of trying to run him down.
I have personally done commendation posts on Dr. Godwin Ehigiamusoe (LAPO) and Chief Gabriel Igbinedion in their feats in the creation of employment for their people, will someone now crucify me because I did so? Captain Hosa is a great Bini man no doubt but he still needs to affect more lives than ever.
Edo youths, get your priorities right, that is the only way you can be taken seriously and desist from these attitude of praise singing and “halleluaism’.
