This once respected has allowed Oshiomole to foolishly use him. You will surely go down like Oshiomole that behaves like a dangote trailer that has lost control and heading towards lagoon while destroying everything on its way. Be careful Capt. Hosa. Don't be misled by a man without shame and integrity .

That's a very myopic view.
You need to stop watching nollywood movies. Start reading foreign journals and materials like Forbes, Fortune, New York Times, HBR etc.
You can read many of these materials for free online.
If you keep this line of thought, you will never go beyond being average in life.
You can be very wealthy without being a criminal.

Defamation: Capt. Hosa Serves Notice On Edo State Government To Seek Redress In Court

Chairman of Ocean Marine Solution (OMS), Captain Idahosa Wells Okunbo (Capt, Hosa), has served notice on the Edo State Government of his intention to proceed against it in court for libelous and defamatory publications against him by the State Government.

In a letter by his Counsel, Dr Oladapo Olanipekun (SAN), dated July 20, 2020 and referenced EM/OAG/02/2020, addressed to the Edo State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Professor Yinka Omorogbe, Capt. Hosa demanded a retraction of the said publications.

He also demanded that the State Government and/or its representatives should cease and desist from making any further libelous and defamatory publications against him.

Not done, the billionaire businessman demanded the sum of N2 billion for the “embarrassment, inconvenience, losses and damages done to his person, character and interests” as a result of the “mischievous, malicious and misleading publications.”

In the four-page letter, Olanipekun said that:-



According to him, “You are aware that our client is one of the most prominent citizens of Edo State and, indeed, a foremost Nigerian. He is an accomplished businessman, whose interests and achievements, transcend Edo State and Nigeria.

“Through hard work, excellence and the rare business acumen, our client has built and nurtured a diverse and vast business conglomerate, spanning different spheres of the Nigerian economy.

“Edo State is one of the primary beneficiaries of our client’s industry. He invests significantly in the welfare of the State and he employs several hundreds of Edo indigenes in his many businesses.

“Our client has been meticulous in building his career with the hallmarks of diligence and integrity. His peace-loving nature has received global acclaim. Hence, he was recognized with a global peace award in 2019 by the Chairman of the Order of Lafayette awards in Geneva, Switzerland.

“We could refer to an endless list of numerous awards and achievements certifying our client as a man of integrity, industry, means and peace. It is instructive that some of these awards were conferred on our client by institutions based in Edo State. He is a respected Nigerian and philanthropist, who is held in high esteem within and beyond the shores of Nigeria.”

He stated further:-

OSHIOMOLE has piped down having lost at the federal level.

Now Capt Hosa Okunbo, one of Oshiomole foot soldier has started his own.

This man Okunbo was known to have had issues with the MD of Nigeria Ports Authority, Hadiza Bala Usman.

Now Okunbo has started with Obaseki having had his finger burnt with Hadiza Bala Usman of the Nigeria Ports Authority.

YOU HAVE MONEY which almost every Edo state indigene including other Nigerians know why not go and enjoy your wealth quietly like Dangote or the Igbenedion.

Why take sides with the parties in the Edo state crisis.

HOSA OKUNBO SHOULD LEARN FROM BUSINESS MAN ALIKO DANGOTE, THE ACT OF NOT SUPPORTING ONE SIDE AGAINST THE OTHER IN A POLITICAL ISSUES AT LEAST NOT PUBLICLY.

Aliko Dangote has a lot to teach Hosa Okunbo.

Just few days ago Hosa Okunbo bought three pages of the Vanguard Newspaper where he wrote a detailed articles calling on President Buhari to tell GOVERNOR OBASEKI TO LEAVE HIM ALONE.

But did Okunbo tell Buhari to talk to Oshiomole whom he Okunbo has been supporting to leave Obaseki alone.

Oshiomole is still fighting governor Obaseki even though he has been relieved of his national chairman job at Abuja.

Okunbo should learn as a businessman that situation like this demands that you remain neutral to the electoral processes as it relates to whom will become governor of the state.

When you try to support one party against the other especially as it has to do with the incumbent governor or government of Edo state the forces of the STATE GOVERNMENT will be pulled against you.

Best counsel so far, thanks bro.

He is guilty as alleged

And what are your full names, full home address and telephone number, so Captain Hosa and his Solicitors can reach you since you know certain things they don’t know?

Also, posting a picture of yourself here would greatly help as well.

Thanks @londonerr
