The recommendation was contained in a communique issued and signed by its director of public relations, DCC Olusola Odumuso , at the end of a three-day strategic communication conference for state commandants, provosts of Colleges and imagemakers.

The conference, which was tagged, “STRACOMM 2022,”was targeted at the various gatekeepers and stakeholders of the Corps across the 36 states commands and FCT for improved service delivery.

Arising from the conference after intensive 3 -day deliberations, all inclusive brainstorming sessions and cross fertilisation of ideas among participants, the communique was developed to beckon a new era of strategic communications in the NSCDC’s operations and relations with the media and the public.

They advised imagemakers from the various sectors of the economy, particularly security agencies to embrace strategic communication in crisis management as it provides clarity and direction for the masses, and partners in an otherwise uncertain and confusing time.

The conference pointed out that the key role of strategic communication during a crisis is to stabilise and advance a given organisation by inspiring confidence, earning trust and engaging stakeholders. The communique further noted that clear, consistent communication is vital to successfully maintain continuity and full-time recovery.

The workshop, had a galaxy of resource persons who are core media professionals, image merchants and a few others from the academia, such as the Editor- In- Chief/ Senior Vice Chairman of LEADERSHIP Group Limited, Mr Azu Ishiekwene, the managing editor, northern operations of the Nation Newspapers,  Alhaji Yusuf Alli,  the secretary – general, Nigerian Guild of Editor /Bureau Chief of Thisday Newspaper, Mr. Iyobosa Uwugiaren, among others.

According to the communique, policy frameworks were developed and proposed to the management for adoption in the Corps’ Standard Operating Procedure (SOP).

The communique partly reads; “The Corps, is to expand its Crisis Management Communication Plan (CMCP) by emplacing crisis communication strategies that will enable seamless communication between the Corps, the general public and the media during crisis, disasters, floodings, breakdown of law and order, electoral violence or crisis, banditry, kidnapping, and on attacks on critical national assets and infrastructure as well as on many other acts of infringement on the law.

“The goal is to enable the Corps to effectively prepare for potential crises by developing and implementing contingency plans for crisis response mechanisms. The CMCP would among other things help the Corps in the management of crisis and disaster by feeling the early warning signs and alerting the public immediately, against the aftermaths and the need to take necessary precautions and devise means of coming out of the situation whilst deciding on the next course of action.

“In view of the forthcoming 2023 general election, the top officers resolve that the Corps, should adopt the non-kinetic strategy to proffer lasting solution to vote buying, political thuggery, incitement of violence, hate speeches and so on during the forthcoming 2023 general elections via improved communication, information dissemination, interactions and education of the general public through mass media enlightenment.”
