Politicians have been urged to emulate the virtues of Barrister Osarodion Ogie, Secretary to Edo State Government.
Â
The call, according to a youth Leader and Executive Director, Initiative for Youth Awareness on Migration, Immigration, Development and Reintegration (IYAMIDR) Solomon Okoduwa is necessitated by his steadfastness and commitment towards meeting the needs of the people.
Â
Okoduwa said they are backing him because of the many lives he has touched especially the youth.
Â
He said politicians who wish to excel in the political space should follow his path.
Â
“Mr. Osarodion Ogie will continue to be relevant many years to come regardless of his political affiliation, Okoduwa swore.
Â
“He is a detribalised Nigerian. Not minding the class, religion, tribe and culture. He humbly accepts everyone. Regardless of the pressure, the politician respectfully address the crowd of people that throng to his house daily. He is a politician that believes in the grassroot and understands the political game.”
Â
The youth leader added, “He is the brain behind the success of Mr Godwin Obaseki administration. He is a unifier, fence mender, and problem solver. You will be amazed the way and manner he organises strategic political meetings with thousands of people on daily basis either before office or after.”
Â
“Obviously, he is faced with the task of rebranding the political space in the current Edo politics.
Â
“He is our talisman. One of the most influential political giants, but full of humility. A man that is silent achiever, who would never come out to blow his trumpet, Okoduwa stated.
Â
“The lawyer is the only politician that throws open his doors and gate to receive and listen to issues and challenges that may require government attention. He opens his door while many close theirs, whereas they expect to get same acceptance or results during elections. For us who are watching and seeing things from afar, we say thank you and well done. You are indeed a blessing to Edo State.
Â
“One good turn deserves another. We pray God to lift you higher to a more higher calling where your humanitarian impact will be felt across board, Okoduwa concluded.
