Professionals To Deepen Discourse On Public Policy Engagement

For a robust government relations and public policy engagement across Africa, the Growth and Transformation Professional (GTPro) has concluded plans to hold a Masterclass in Lagos on government relations to enlightenment stakeholders.

The organisers said the move has become necessary given the fact that the continent has become the new investment destination due to the combined opportunities of its huge population, low cost of labour and a healthy consumption environment influenced by a youthful population.

They said the discourse with the theme: “Navigating Government and Policy Challenges for Business Success and Sustainability,” will have former Senate leader and Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Senator Victor Ndoma Egba and the managing director/CEO of Nigeria Breweries Plc, who is also the chairman of the Beer Sectoral Group of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN), while Hans Essaadi will speak at the maiden edition of the GTpro Masterclass on Government Relations and Public Policy Strategy.

The co-founder of GTPro, Dr Dakuku Peterside, said attending the exclusive event will expand the frontiers of developing robust strategies and approaches in today’s thriving dynamic landscape.

Peterside, the immediate past Director General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) and former House of Reps member, stressed further that “Our Masterclass programme represents a unique opportunity for participants as it will provide critical insights on the cost-benefits of maintaining a strategic government relations mechanism that is sustainable; it will also help participants to access various windows that can be engaged in their stakeholder relations and engagement programmes.”
