Pro Obaseki youths in Orhionmwon, foolish or patient?

The biggest question in the minds of any people particularly politicians is, “what is in it for us?” This raises deeper and more specific questions like, “what has or will my community benefit from the government?”, “what have or will I benefit from the government?”. The pro Obaseki youths are faced with this question going forward with campaign for the return of Governor Godwin Obaseki.

The questions of whether Governor Godwin Obaseki’s administration have favoured Orhionmwon in terms of landmark capital infrastructure and human capital development will determine the zeal that responsible and time tested people’s advocates will be bringing on board.

Politics is a game of community and self interest. Political support is considered along the lines of; What has our communities benefited in terms of projects and reforms? What have we benefited as a group of unrepentant political promoters? Are we getting the necessary recognition and consideration in shared opportunities? What is our faith in this government’s tomorrow?

Loyalty is the key, but there are two perspective to political loyalty; patience or foolishness. The first is healthy when there is faith in a leader’s track record, but the second is unhealthy where there is limited trust. It is smart to choose and follow the former.

The greatest puzzle for us, the Obaseki promoters in Orhionmwon today is, amidst numerous contracts and appointments that doesn’t have our youths considered, which category do we fall? The patient or the foolish giant?
