The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, has said President Bola Tinubu’s communication strategy under the Renewed Hope Agenda is designed to restore public trust in governance.
Idris spoke at the unveiling of the World Public Relations Forum (WPRF) “Abuja 2026,” an event organized by the Nigeria Institute of Public Relations (NIPR) and scheduled to hold in Nigeria next year. The ceremony took place at the Nigerian Air Force Conference Centre, Abuja, on Monday, and drew public relations professionals and practitioners from various sectors.
Highlighting Nigeria’s readiness to host the event, Idris emphasized the central role of effective communication in today’s digital age.
Senator Osita Izunaso, representing the National Assembly, urged organizers to ensure synergy to showcase Nigeria positively before, during, and after the forum. He called on government agencies to refurbish federal secretariat buildings, especially around Eagle Square, where key events are scheduled, and asked security agencies at airports and other major entry points to maintain conduct that enhances Nigeria’s image.
President of NIPR, Ike Neliaku noted the progress Nigeria has made under the current administration, particularly in the aviation sector, which he said has provided notable improvements for Nigerians.
The unveiling marks a step toward positioning Nigeria as a global hub for public relations excellence and underscores the administration’s commitment to transparent, responsible, and impactful communication.
