Nigerian father employs his son as security man in his company
A Nigerian father identified as Felix Obazee, has revealed that he employed his son, Uyiogosa, as a security man at his company.
Obazee, who is the CEO of Fionet Security Services, made this known via a LinkedIn post. He shared photos of his child dressed in the company’s security uniform.
According to him, he did it in order to give his son quality parenting as he posed rhetorical questions to people, asking if they would choose to teach their kids their business or shield them with the flimsy talk that they do not want them to suffer.
He also thanked God for the grace he bestowed on him which enabled him to bring up responsible children, that would become leaders of their generation.
Mr Obazee’s post received numerous reactions from LinkedIn users. Read some of the reactions:
Dotun Jegede: Talented young man builds petrol tanker prototype, photos go viral “My daughter is 10, she helps me document my consultancy income at home. She helps input data and collate client database. On this very Satuday, we both went out inside the estate to do some online submissions plans sorting.
Abraham Ojo: I hope you paid the young man.
Bala: Felix, you are my most envied parent today and will be for a long time. But credit must also go to Uyi (who deserves and lives his name ‘Praise’) for submitting to your guidance. It is not easy these days to convince adult elite children to discipline methods like these….
Kelechi Uchenna: My opinion, I would introduce my children to my business and let them know that they are welcome to join the business if they are interested. They can be executive directors or non executive directors( owners) depending on their choice…
Any how, it all depends on choice and how he wanted it
The guy accepted to be trained nah
Not all children will accept that
That’s good development if you engage in any jobs and you don’t want your children to be involved, the person needs to examine him/herself. That means the person are engaged in legitimate job. It’s good in that way.
Before someone could engage engage in security business you must have prerequisite if not you won’t be able to succeed but with the experience he wants his child to have, it will be an added advantage to him.
Im in support of what you did, this is the best legacy for children, so that children will never relax and be spending his father money unnecessarily, he want to teach his children how to catch fish not that he want to be given him fish to chop. Good father.
There’s nothing bad in engaging your children in your handiwork or businesses once it legitimate. One day the person will become CEO or director and with the previous experience he has had he will be an added advantage to him.
Charity begin at home
His son may good at safety he had to employ him for the betternment of the company and family
Leave o the man dey trained his child ooh

I think the father is proud of his work,and he know in Nigeria is not easy for any youth out there to get a good job without have godfather
Am in support cuz charity and good upbringings begins at home… As you lay your bed naso you go sleep on top
The father is just trying to train the guy to know more of the job and with time this guy will do better than his father cause he got experience in the hard way … Wow intelligent father and hope the guy understand what his father is trying to do.
