The Director General of the Dr Osahon Enabulele Foundation media engagement started at KU fm, Auchi Road By Pass area. He was received into the station’s conference hall by Saliu Ibrahim, the station’s Manager. After, introductions, Mr Ibrahim opened talks. He wanted to know what the Foundation is about. The DG took time to explain the conceptual framework of the Foundation. He explained that it was a Foundation committed to citizens development, driven through leadership excellence. It was not going to be another run on the mills organisation.
The question of defective leadership is affecting other sections of our national life: making many things to go awry as a result. He cited the poor gap in the access to health care in Nigeria for instance, and how the country is lagging behind on health coverage of a good percentage of its citizens, which according to him was unacceptable, especially as there was an Health Act in place in the country. He emphasized that the Foundation’s activities at rejuvenating our society, by pushing for access to equal opportunities, would be a sustainable advocacy that will be taken far; even to our secondary and primary schools. Finally, he invited KU FM to partner with the Vision and Mission of the Foundation
Responding, the station’s Manager, who had a few other staff in attendance, was very pleased with the visit of the former WMA President and remarked that he was associated with excellence. He had no doubts that he was altruistic in the pursuit of his mission, he said. So, as a Station that wants to identify with excellence, he promised that for any programme advancing the Foundation’s cause, they will be just a phone call away. He added that even though the station is a business, and naturally profit driven, they would cover the 29 January event free of charge, as a way to encourage the Foundation. He thanked the DG for coming to KU fm.
The DG then proceeded to the broadcast studio to share the good news with Edo people on air. But that was not before he had been made by the anchor person to share some of his experiences and achievements as the then President of the World Medical Association. As usual, the DG acquitted himself impressively!
