NIPR President, APRA Secretary-General, Others Applaud Young Entrepreneur, Ejechi
The Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR) President and Chairman of Council, Dr. Ike Neliaku has applauded a member of the Institute, Mr. Eugene Chinedu Ejechi for his vision of embarking on a farming project which he said will assist in tackling food inadequacy in the country.
The NIPR boss made the commendation on Saturday in Nasarawa State while commissioning the Gentlereal Farms and Kitchen Ltd, an agricultural facility owned by Mr. Ejechi.
“Nigerian youths are very powerful, very creative and innovative. You have everything working for you. All you need is take advantage of numerous potentials our environment offers.
“What this young man has done is very encouraging. I will like to use him to send a very strong message to Nigerian youths. You can be employers of labour and that is what this young man has demonstrated”, he stated.
Also, the Secretary-General of African Public Relations Association (APRA), Dr. Omoniyi Ibietan said Mr. Ejechi has demonstrated the wholesomeness of the Nigerian youths, characterised in can-do spirit.

“President Bola Tinubu has repeatedly talked about the need to tackle issues of food production because of the rising cost of food, as well as the issue of unemployment.
“Now in a little but quite symbolic way, Mr. Ejechi has tackled that problem from his own corner by setting up a farm to address the question of inadequate food supply through organic farming and went ahead to employ a number of persons, thereby taking them off labour market”, he noted.
Also, a former Commissioner of Police and the Provost Police School of Public Relations, Dr. Emmanuel Ojukwu commended the NIPR member for the initiative, which he believes will strengthen the health of communities through consumption of organically produced foods.
Mr. Ejechi while expressing gratitude to the leadership of NIPR for identifying with him said he was largely influenced by the quality of mentorship he gained from the late Chairman of Access Holdings, Mr. Herbert Wigwe, who taught him virtues of resilience and hard work.
He also thanked the former Chairman of Access Bank, Dr. Dere Awosika whom he described as benefactor for the role she played in the successes he has recorded so far in this project.
