Social Media Can Lead You To Love Somebody You Should Hate, Hate Somebody You Should Love -Governor Sule
***
“I don’t know how an Engineer will come to a public relations event and say a few words. But it’s an assignment given to me. How did I get here? I got here because I believe public relations is liberty and liberty is public relations.
“In an era of the social media where all sort of things can be said, that can lead you to love somebody you can hate and can lead you to hate somebody you should love. There is no better time than for us to grab an opportunity. For us in Nasarawa State, we try to look for opportunities and we grab them.
“When we saw the opportunity for the public relations institute we came into it and believe very strongly that Nasarawa State needs one, Nigeria needs one, Africa needs one. We are happy that the first one to be established in Nigeria will be established in Nasarawa State.
“We have so many media experts who have no public relations. We have so many journalists who have no public relations. We have so many people with degree in communications and they have zero public relations. And that is the reason why we see public relations as leadership.
“Indeed, from my background of mechanical engineering and mechanical technology, I want to see how I can take knowledge and bring practice and put them together to produce one. That is exactly what we are doing by establishing this institute of public relations in Nasarawa State.” -Governor Sule At NIPR’s Golden Jubilee Celebration Dinner In Abuja
