I thought it was a good time to SHARE SOME THOUGHTS I SHARED WITH PR PROFESSIONALS at the March 2022 Edition of the Lagos PR clinic held at the Eko FM Multipurpose Hall, LTV, Agidingbi, Ikeja, Lagos State WITH A LARGER AUDIENCE.
I was the GUEST SPEAKER. I chose to speak from an “EXPERIENCE BASED PERSPECTIVE”.
I am sure you may be wondering why I am just sharing this now, the NAKED TRUTH is that I DIDN’T WANT TO EQUIP POLITCAL OPPONENTS to fight me. 🤪 That sounds selfish right? But I come from the school of thought that says that it’s better to be a living coward than a dead hero. 😀
Wait o! Before anyone begins to question what “locus standi” an “Environment Commissioner” has to “poke his nose” on PR matters, here’s why I can…
🎈I am an ambidextrous professional with a wealth of over 3 decades brain and hands-on experience in advertising, marketing communication, brand management, training and consulting.
🎈I have at various times managed the brand and Marketing/Corporate communication functions of four (4) major Nigerian financial service groups.
🎈Before being called to public service, I spent 5 years working as a brand and marketing communication entrepreneur.
🎈During the course of my career, I have developed and implemented over 100 major local and international, marketing communication and public relations campaigns across a variety of media and channels.
