Kaduna NIPR Prepares Members for World PR Forum

The Kaduna state chapter of the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR) is mobilizing its members and government information officers for the upcoming World Public Relations Forum (WPRF). Chairman Mohammed Abdullahi announced this initiative during the October general meeting in Kaduna, stating that the state government would sponsor some participants.

Abdullahi emphasized that the forum would serve as a platform to showcase Kaduna's investment potential, cultural heritage, and development efforts. He described the chapter's goal as not merely participating but acting as ambassadors for Kaduna State.

The chapter is pursuing partnerships and sponsorships to support attendees. Abdullahi also mentioned a digital transformation agenda aimed at enhancing membership management and communication.

A needs assessment identified continuous training and digital competence as priorities. Professor Samaila Mande delivered a lecture on the responsible use of artificial intelligence in public relations.

Immediate past chairman Haroun Malami congratulated the new executive committee and encouraged contributions to professional training.
