THE NIGERIAN Institute of Public Relations (NIPR) has appointed Rasheed Bolarinwa as the chairman of its newly established FinanceHub Management Committee.
Bolarinwa, currently serves as the President of the Association of Communication and Marketing Professionals in Banks (ACAMB).
He was chosen to lead this key initiative aimed at enhancing public relations within the finance sector.
FinanceHub, which encompasses the banking, insurance, and pensions industries, seeks to foster sustainable PR practices across these vital economic sectors.
Bolarinwa’s extensive experience in journalism, public relations, and the financial sector positions him to drive these efforts forward, alongside fellow committee members from other sectors, including maritime and aviation.
He currently heads Brand Management and Corporate Communication at Polaris Bank.
In January 2024, he was re-elected as the President of ACAMB after serving two terms as the secretary-general of the association.
His leadership in communications within the banking industry has been widely recognized, making him a natural fit for this new role.
Other notable appointees include Mrs. Thelma Okoh for the Maritime Hub, Dr. Jossy Nkwocha for the Energy Hub, and Mr. Basil Agboarumi for the Aviation Hub.
Additionally, Dr. Ahmad Sajoh will lead the Anti-Corruption and Consumer Protection Hub, while Miss Chimdi Neliaku will chair the Young Practitioners Hub.
The nomination letters were signed by Uzoma Onyegbadue, Registrar and Secretary to the NIPR Governing Council.
The creation of these sectoral hubs aims to establish robust PR practices that can drive sustainable growth across various industries.
At the inauguration ceremony, NIPR President Dr. Ike Neliaku lauded the new appointees, expressing confidence in their ability to elevate public relations standards in their respective fields.
