Customs Spokespersons Urged to Utilise Digital Media for Public Communication

Public Relations Officers (PROs) of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) have been urged to utilise Digital Media tools for public communication.

The call was made at a Training Retreat organised by the service for its spokespersons and public communicators.

Speaking on the theme of the programme, the Commandant Customs Training College (CTC), Ikeja, Comptroller Kalamu Ayinde Aremu pointed out that the management of the online reputation and brand identity of an organisation through the purposeful use of digital and social technologies are essential in digital age.

“Public communicators should develop passion for their profession by being innovative and creative in their messaging, especially in this digital age,” he said.

The national spokesperson of the Customs, DC Timi Bomodi, said the workshop was specifically designed to equip officers of the Public Relations unit of the Service with the tools necessary to serve as positive perception enablers.

“Projecting the image of any organisation can be a formidable task. Projecting the image of an organisation whose roles are often misunderstood, misconstrued and sometimes deliberately distorted can be herculean and daunting.

“However, despite the challenges, our job as PR practitioners is to correct these perceptions through constant engagement with our publics. Information management especially in an environment like ours can be difficult.

“That is why we have to keep updating ourselves with the necessary tools that will enable us feed our publics with the right information and at the right time. Thankfully we have in our midst resource persons for this retreat who have distinguished themselves in the practise,” he said.

In his presentation on ‘Effective Public Communication in a Digital Age,’ the Editor-in-Chief of PRNigeria, Yushau Shuaib sai that the advancement in technology has transformed public relations with social media expanding the channels used to engage with new audiences in build reputations.

He said: “With the Immediacy of social media, some of the characteristics of online PR campaigns include deployments of hypertextuality by utilising hyperlinking and web-Linking to posts.

“Similarly multimediality of integrating video, audios and images in Digital media platforms enhance interactivity through comments and engagements.

“The notable tools of engagements are computers, smartphones, editing software, search engine and sharing platforms.”

Other speakers including Dr. Ganiu Okunnu of Lagos State University (LASU) and Abayomi Adisa of British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) in their different presentations on crisis communication and Story Telling urged participants to utilise modern tools of engagement as they practice their profession.

According to them, doing so will help them sustain mutually-beneficial relationships with their target audiences.

  • Army trains 106 Cadet officers to curb insecurity The Nigerian Army has trained 106 Cadet Officers of the 69 Regular Course of the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) in mechanised operations to address the country’s security challenges. The Commandant, NDA, Maj.-Gen. Ibrahim Yusuf, said this during the closing ceremony of the training at Victor Kure Armoured Range in Bauchi on Thursday. Yusuf said the week-long training tagged: “Exercise Battle Crime,” was to expose them to various mechanised operations in tackling insecurity. “This exercise here today is the final phase of mechanised operations which is the phase four of the cadets. “The objective of the exercise is to expose the cadets to mechanised operations in order to prepare them in dealing with the current security threats,” he said. Yusuf said that the cadets would be graduating from the Academy in October, adding that there were seven female officers among them. He said that the training was in collaboration with the Armoured Corps, the Corps of Artillery and the Special Operations Command of the Nigerian Air Force. Yusuf said before the training, the Cadets were at the Nigerian Army School of Military Engineering, Makurdi, where they participated in an assault river crossing operations across River Benue. He added that they moved from there to the Citizenship and Leadership Training Centre, Jos, Plateau State, where they went through the adventure phase of their training. He commended the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt.-Gen. Faruk Yahaya, for his resolve in making the training possible. “All these couldn’t have been possible without the overwhelming support from the Chief of Army Staff. All the tanks, the Artillery guns that took part in this operation were courtesy of the CAOS. “We appreciate the Army Headquarters for this outstanding support and I also want to appreciate the Chief of Air Staff that has authorised the Air Force to provide close air support during this phase of the operation,” he said. Also speaking, the Commander, Armoured Corps, Maj.-Gen. Suleiman Idris, disclosed that it was the first time the NDA Cadets would be coming to Bauchi State for this kind of training. Idris noted that the training was apt due to the security challenge in the country. “This is because when you are giving training to Cadets that are going to become officers who will be leading men to war, it is ideal to expose them to this kind of exercise,” he said. Also, one of the trainees, Officer Cadet Maryam Wawu, described the training as an eye opener. Wawu said it had broadened their knowledge on how effective the Nigerian Army could be in tackling insecurity. She also said the training had strengthened synergy between the combat arms, Combat Service Support Arms and sister services, especially the Nigerian Air Force. By PRNigeria
