Renown Kenyan law professor, Loch Otieno Lumumba, popularly known as PLO Lumumba, Mr. Olufemi Awoyemi, erudite economist and tax consultant and founder and Chairman, Pro-Share, Nigeria’s foremost financial information hub and Mrs. Nkiru Olumide-Ojo, developmental consultant and communications technocrat have endorsed Nkechi Ali-Balogun’s bid for re-election into the governing council of the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR).
Lumumba, notable for his relentlessness in his pan-Africanist perspectives and one who believes in advancing African solutions to African problems, said Ali-Balogun has the pedigree for the membership of the highest policy formulation body of the foremost institute she is bidding for.
‘’I wish Nkechi Ali-Balogun the best. I challenge you to use the knowledge and the intellectual wherewithal, the dedication, the passion and the vision in your quest to serve the Institute in a manner that will make Nigeria and Africa proud.’’
In her own remark, Olumide-Ojo stated that it is refreshing to see that Nkechi Ali-Balogun is vying to serve NIPR.
“She brings experience from the client and the agency sides across the value-chain of communication, I am confident that her wealth of experience will be very greatly useful to the Institute, she asserted.
Making a case for an Ali-Balogun’s bid, Awoyemi asserted that she is a thoroughbred professional who understands how to transform problems into opportunities as she did during her leading of the Lagos State NIPR.
“Her experience as a member of the Institute’s Governing Council, her pragmatic leadership style, capacity and networking skills makes her the ideal candidate for the highest policy formulation body of the prestigious organization. I wish she gets the opportunity to serve as the president of the NIPR,’’ Awoyemi said.
