CBN, NITDA, CCC Shortlisted for 2026 IPRA Awards

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA), and Central Crisis Communication (CCC) have been shortlisted as finalists for the prestigious 2026 International Public Relations Association (IPRA) Golden World Awards. Their entries include a campaign titled "Reclaim Public Trust" aimed at restoring confidence in Nigeria's apex bank following significant monetary and foreign exchange reforms introduced by Governor Olayemi Cardoso.

The campaign emphasizes transparency and stakeholder engagement. Additionally, NITDA's entry focuses on establishing a crisis communication hub, supported by CEO Yushau Shuaib, which aims to combat misinformation and disinformation through a coordinated national framework.

The shortlisted entries will undergo evaluation by an international jury, with winners announced at a gala dinner in Athens, Greece, later in the year. This recognition underscores the growing importance of strategic communication in economic reform and crisis management in Nigeria.
