Crusoe, the Enemy Obaseki Brought from Lagos
By Jackson Omasogie
Nobody ever really knew Mr. Crusoe Osagie, the then assistant to Edo State government on media projects, in Edo State before 2016. It was after the election he was brought from Lagos where he worked in one of these newspaper. As people who had strange project in mind, his god-given duty was to make enemies for himself and Obaseki, and this he did successfully for 8 good years!
Crusoe was never part of the campaigns in 2016, he was imposed on the governor by some big business associates based in Lagos. He took his job with a sinful duty, making enemies here and there. In fact, mere looking at him, you will know he is such a sadistic fellow. He was not the only media person with Obaseki but he was the meanest and most notorious. He was the Joseph Goebbels of the administration – a fighting propagandist with a reputation for spreading lies and disinformation using paid hacks.
While the enemies that Obaseki are mending fences, Crusoe is still fighting and writing rubbish. I am wondering how he became a pastor…how? He lies with careless abandon, fabricate stories and misinform the unsuspecting public. He sponsored so many articles against individuals he felt were against or criticized Obaseki. From Wike, Chief Dan Orbih, Taiye Akerele…the list is endless.
There are news that he has two government cars in his house he took from office, the committee are closing in him and if it is true, they will be retrieved. He was the enemy Obaseki brought from Lagos State and the people of Edo cannot easily forget his notoriety while he held sway in the media using hundreds of small time appointees like Sarah Igunbor, Ologun and others act as his attack dogs.
