The appointment of Mr Phillip Igbinadolor to the campaign council of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Edo State has been applauded by the President of South Carolina Organization of African Unity (OAU), Mr Tonna Okei.
In a statement on Wednesday, Mr Okei, who is a Grand Knight Emeritus, said the inclusion of the Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry and Diplomate of the Royal College of Surgeons of England to the Edo PDP campaign council was not just a right step taken in the right direction but a well-calculated move and best decision taken by a party desirous of winning the forthcoming governorship context in the state.
He described the appointee as a well-foresighted, self-contained and quietly influential health professional whose views are not only globally respected but well sought after.
“He worked in various positions while in the United Kingdom. In his desire to be a clinically oriented Cosmetic and General Dentist who is willing to learn from colleagues and other professionals, he went to the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine Advanced Study Program for foreign-trained Dentists, Pittsburgh, PA where he obtained the Degree of Doctor of Dental Medicine,” a part of the statement read.
Mr Okei said Mr Igbinadolor is a seasoned professional and a dependable humanist who could be entrusted with any responsibility with a sure hope of delivery.
According to him, when it comes to service to humanity and the promotion of sustainable development and good governance, he knows neither night nor day as he is always willing, eager and ready to deliver both aptly and promptly, he stated.
He boasted of his conviction that Mr Igbinadolor services would be required in the state far beyond electioneering as he is an intellectual Iroko and unblemished reformer, particularly in the health sector.
“I have never met with any soul laced with the level of sacrifice and fearlessness I have seen in Igbinadolor,” he quipped.
