... Edo Youths, APC Members Call For His Sack

Mr Crusoe Osagie, Special Adviser on Media and Communication Strategy to Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State, has come under heavy criticism following his negative comments on Edo State Youths.

Igbere TV reports that Osagie had on Wednesday, referred to Edo Youths as “lazy” in a comment on social media.

He was reacting to a video in a WhatsApp group where a social media user had criticized the state government for leaving some bad roads unattended to.

The social media user had uploaded a video clip on the page, calling the attention of the group's participants to the bad state of a road in Benin City, which got worsen following a few minutes downpour.

But Osagie, instead of acknowledging the clip, went ahead and attacked the social media user.

He started by comparing Edo to Lagos, adding that Lagos boys would not post such clips of mere downpour like Edo ‘Lazy Youths’ does.

The comment of Osagie did not go down well with members of the group as majority of the group members reacted by calling for his sack.

The governor's media aide had to exit the group chat when the situation became unbearable. Despite leaving the group, the bashing continued till the following day with his foot soldiers unable to defend him.

Localizing what the president generalized

But they still voted the president in, so why are they calling for his sack?

Wrong people at the helm of affairs
