The Selection Committee for the Lagos Public Relations Industry Gala and Awards (LAPRIGA) 2022, has revealed, over 100 entries have been submitted, announcing that people now have a 15-day grace period to still enter for the award.
While all entries closed in September, the committee announced October 28, 2022, as the new deadline, encouraging the LAPRIGA public to hop on the moving train.
Speaking on the rationale behind the deadline extension, the Chairman of the Selection Committee, Mr. Chido Nwakanma, noted that the extension was granted to give room for more professionals in the PR industry to submit their entries for the prestigious award.
“We have received unprecedented interest and enquiries concerning this year’s award. Members of the committee felt that we need to extend the entry period for a few more days in keeping with our promise to encourage greater participation of stakeholders in LaPRIGA,” Mr. Nwakanma said.
