Reignite Public Affairs, Nigeria’s first full-service public affairs consultancy in partnership with West Africa’s leading business media group BusinessDay Media will be hosting Reignite Public Affairs National Dialogue Series (RPA NDS)

According to Franklyn Ginger-Eke, Executive Director/COO Reignite Public Affairs, as Nigeria marches towards her 60th Independence anniversary, there is a critical need to review her progress in key sectors such as education, health, agriculture, economy, security, infrastructure and governance that have the extreme potential to catalyze national development. This becomes even more strident in the post COVID-19 era which demands fresh approach to old challenges.

 

Speaking on the partnership with BusinessDay, Yomi Badejo-Okusanya, Group Managing Director of CMC Connect (Perception Managers), described the partnership as a combination of two organisations with the shared values of promoting governance and socio economic development of the Nigeria.

It is slated for Tuesday July 7, 2020 via Zoom link channel http://bit.ly/rpaeducation at 2:00pm (WAT). The webinar will feature Hon.
