NIPR Commences Process of Crackdown on Quackery

The Governing Council of the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR) has approved a slight adjustment in its approach to enforce strict compliance of professionalism and excellence in public relations practice in Nigeria.

This follows interventions from various stakeholders across the country, the Institute’s Director of Public Relations, Mr. Stanley Ogadigo said in a statement on Wednesday.

“The Council at its 106th meeting considered the presentation by the NIPR Act Compliance and Enforcement Committee headed by Gen. Chris Olukolade (rtd), fnipr and the submissions of some State Chapter Chairmen on the subject, to use the period of 1st January – 31st March, 2024, to intensify public enlightenment and awareness before commencement of full crackdown on 1st April, 2024.

“All concerned are by this communication strongly encouraged to take advantage of this new window to conclude their membership processes to avoid prosecution of individual culprits and their employers, in accordance with the provisions of the NIPR Act”, the statement reads in part.
