The Kwara State chapter of the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR) has felicitated Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu over his appointment as Director General of the National Orientation Agency (NOA) and the newly confirmed Comptroller General of the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS) Mr. Adewale Bashir Adeniyi, FNIPR.

Similarly, the NIPR has praised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for finding two prominent public relations practitioners worthy of appointment.

A statement jointly signed by the Acting Chairman of NIPR in the State, Mr Gbenga Ishola and Secretary, Mallam Abdul Rahman Sanni, expressed confidence in the abilities of the duo in turning around the organisation for consolidation of better achievements.

The chapter, while charging the new appointees to put their expertise and wealth of experience to bear in their new assignments, enjoined them to continue to be worthy ambassadors of the Institute while discharging their duties.

The statement noted that the Institute charged with the responsibility of ensuring positive image building can't afford to perform below people's expectations.
