Now in its seventh anniversary edition, the LaPRiga Awards is the ultimate PR professional industry Award designed to encourage, celebrate and reward individuals who are registered PR practitioners and member-firms as well as organizations transforming the PR practice in Nigeria. It is Nigeria’s PR practice’s definitive Award designed to recognize and reward outstanding achievements in the pursuit of excellence in the delivery of outcomes in the practice of Public Relations in Nigeria.

It is an initiative of the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations, the Lagos State Chapter. 

In her remark, the Chairman of the Lagos Chapter, Mrs. Comfort Obot Nwankwo, FNIPR noted that ‘’Our goal with this theme, Hall of Fame, is to institutionalize the PR Practitioner Award’s Category.’’, she said.

Accordingly, awards are most valuable when they are credible, and this is what has made the LaPRiga a sough-after initiative.

In line with this thrust, the LaPRiga Award paraded eminent jurors that constituted the Awards Selection Committee which was chaired by Chido Nwakama. Other members include: Eniola Mayowa [Secretary], Goddie Ofose [Member], Dr. Segun Alabi [Member] and Olumide Sogunle [Member].

Speaking on the rationale for choosing the winners in all the contested categories, the Chairman of the LaPRiga 2022 Selection Committee, Mr. Chido Nwakama, noted that the winning entries reported outcomes and results professionally. ‘’The winners spoke the language of public relations in reporting their activities,’’ he affirmed.

According to Nwakama, ‘’the entries weeded out were anecdotal and failed to go even to the first stage of documenting outputs.’’ He stressed that: ‘’At the level of LaPRiga, the expectation is to report the numbers and the outcome of the activities.’’

The award event lived to its theme of Hall of Fame edition held on Friday, December 3, 2022 as it portrayed a historical night of honour, glamour, splendor and unending memories for the PR industry in Nigeria.
