INTRODUCTION

  • Background of the study

The dynamic nature of the present society poses serious challenges to organization and their products. The competitive market among manufacturing industries to get a fair share of the market, maximize profit, the desire to remain in business coupled with the explosive growth in information communication technology has a major impact on the way organization and institutions bring value to their customers. The quest to meet the need of customer, distribute product more effectively and service advertising (Gambo, 2000)

Advertising, according to Dum et al (1978) cited in Gambo (2000) is a paid non-personal communication through radio by business firms, non-profit marking organization, individual who are in some wax’s identified in the advertising message and who hope to inform and persuade member of a particular audience.

Eluwa (2005) notes that advertising in a integral part of our socio-economic system. In our complex society, advertising has evolved into a vital communication system for both consumers and business. The ability of advertising to deliver carefully proposed message to target audience has given it a major role in the marketing programme of most organizations.

In the words of Belch (2001), companies ranging from large multinational corporations to small retailers increasingly rely on advertising to help them market their products and services. In market-based economies, consumers have learnt to help on advertising and other forms of promotion for information their can use in making purchase decisions.

Over the decades, the amount of money spent on advertising sales promotion, direct marketing and other forms of marketing communication has increase tremendously both in the United State and in foreign markets.

Evidence of the increasing importance of adverting comes from the growth in expenditure. In 1980, advertising expenditures in the United State were 53 billion dollars. By 1996, an estimated 17 billion dollars was spent on local and national advertising (Ebue, 1995)

 

Belch (1992) explains that the tremendous growth in expenditure for advertising and advertising and promotion reflect in part the growth of the United State and global economics. The growth in promotional expenditure also neglect the fact marketers around the world recognize the value and importance of advertising.

Baran (2002) asserts that advertising has been practiced for thousand of years; industrialization has led to greater urbanization, which fuelled to growth of advertising.

Advertising, according Okoro (1995) dates back to ancient Egypt when the papyrus porters were found offering toward for return of run away slaves. In Greek and Roman days, signboards were placed above doors of business establishment and town cries proclaimed that merchants had certain wares for sale.

He further explains that as newspapers and magazines circulations increased and new technology advances were made at the turn of the center, advertising developed new slogans, better copy writers and artists developed methods of analyzing products, media and markets.

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

  • BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

The role which the mass media play in the day-to-day running and shaping of the society cannot be underestimated. The mass media, especially the electronic media, which include Radio, Television integrate the communal functions of the society: relating both the internal and external environment. This they do by re-creating, maintaining and reinforcing people, this means in their daily operations, the electronic media operate as essential tools for the direct projections of ideas, thoughts and information.

According to Becker L. (1983, 20) “The choice of behaviour, policies and services which help people to select and construct picture of the world around then tend largely to depend on communication and its pattern of handling information”.

SCHRAMN, W. (1963; 2), in his own view aligned indirectly with the belief of the above writer that “All sorts of technological innovations have accompanied the explosion of the electronic media, which opened sources and resources for information and entertainment, to support cultural and social changes”.

Despite the world-wide increase in the studies of the televised cultural programmes, little is known of how people perceive such programme; the major reason for this study is to find out if electronic media is an effective instrument for cultural propagation, since the electronic media reach millions of individuals daily and reflect societal values, these media have become targets for heavy scrutiny by researchers interested in determining the effects of cultural programmes on people. There is also strong evidence that at least some dysfunctional activities have been brought through interactions with Television and Radio. That is why CHUKUKERE, G. (1988; 148) in her own view stated “The electronic media have become a major force in Nigeria socio-cultural, political and economic development”

Melton, G. et al (1987; 20) on his own side rightly put it that “All media have the potential to affect culture and socialization”.

With all these we can see that the influence of the electronic media goes a long way in our national heritage, most especially the cultural propagation of Mgbidi town.

 

A BRIEF HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF MGBIDI TOWN.

Prior to the Institutionalization of Mass Communication , in its present form, community development had progressed form one generation to another generation.

In the days of old, communities or villages groups undertook various forms of projects such as villages, halls, Village Square with “juju” shrines and various other traditional projects peculiar to different communities. Such developments were usually initiated by age-grades in conformity with established traditions of the local area. The scale of such projects depended on the size of the community and the community’s quality of leadership and also available resources.

INTRODUCTION

1.1     BACKGROUD OF THE STUDY

The reason for banks striving to improve their profitability are obvious and varied. In this era of competitions, there is need for organizations, banks business enterprises churches, clubs etc. to evolve procedures to improve their performance to the benefits of their consumers and kowing fully well that times have change and also the creams of cutomers.

For bamks the need as more pronounced especially when they are faced with what we call institution and inter bank competition, which a times head to the declining profit margin of many banks consequent upon some factors as inflation and tight money supply measures of the permanent. The needs for competitions among banks and other public relations programs geared towards building good corporate image for their respective banks. Nigeria banks have recognized that effective public relations has become the integrating force which interprets their environment to the bank management, defines objective and building good will through good deeds. In furtherance of these objectives, many banks in Nigeria have introduced extra incentive such as credit cards, weekend banking organization all in attempt to provide exceptional services for their customers and to retain old customers, attract potential depositors and win public understanding. These banks adopting to change trends by creating effective public relations department as a tool to boost cooperate image are currently experiencing increases.

 

  • HISTORICAL ROLES OF BANKING IN THE NIGERIAN ECONOMY

Banks can be defined as an institution in which individuals keeps, exchange and transact money. Banking as an industry is impossible in a non-monitored economy. The growth of banks in the former British west Africa (Nigeria inclusive) did not start until the introduction of the British coinage and currency system in late 19th century.

Banking business was first introduced in Nigeria in 1892. the first bank in Nigeria was the African Banking Corporation from 1892 banking activities started striving with life competition between rival banks. This was free banking era. It was characterized by non existence of banking legislation. Any body could set up bank provided he is registered under the provision of companies ordinance. The ordinance prohibited formation of a banking company unless it was registered as a company.

1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

        Nothing is as contentious

Nothing is of utmost joy

Nothing is as rapturously delightful as an event whose time has come victor Hugor.

There are basically four avenues open for the mass media to raise funds for their operations. They are through government subvention advertising, sales of media revenue and denation. Today people donate funds for the man media operation the sale of media license is also a thing of the past while government subvention is on the decline this reviling.

Advertising is now the only source of revenue for the mass media. The introduction of structural adjustment programme SAP in 1986 by Ibrahim Babangida mitating administration seriously affected the lever of financing of the mass media industry as well the standard of living in Nigeria confirming a former Director of programmes Nigeria Television Authority Victoria Ezeokoli says:

NTA’s problems is not one of creating

Entertainment programmes. It is the big financial squeeze. It is the lack of facilities to produce high quality programmes to meet the very meticulous taste of Nigerians.

Since revenue derivable from Advertising alone was insufficient to run the media, the Hamza Zayyad’s technical committee on privatization and commercialization (TCPC) was set up to find out ways to sustain the mass media.

The committee recommended various ways to raise funds to pay salaries procure state of the art equipment and services some of the manageable outdate ones. One of the harsh measures were the deregulation of the Broadcast media and news commercialization the led to mass retrenchment of staff in government owned mass media outfits, commercial owned mass media outfits, commercial advertisement spot announcements, programme sponsorship and the notorious “let them pay” (LTD) charges to raise and increase revenue for the mass media. This policy made news a commodity to be paid for before they are disseminated to the audience through the concept of news as a commodity for sale started in 1811 when Samuel Gilbert started collecting news in his coffee bar/shop. His assistance Samuel Topliff took over the business of collecting news from Gilbert . he puts the news together and collect a fee before you read the news. Almost simultaneously Charleys Hauas began to sell news as a commodity in 1825. Bernald Wollf in 1848 also sold news in France as a commodity representing wolf Agency in 1851 Paulius Julius Reuter began to sell news as a commodity as an agent of Reuter News Agency But apart from the daily times news the world over are selected only for their traditional news values.

INTRODUCTION

Nigeria Telecommunication Plc Enugu is public liability company that carries out business in the telecommunication sector in Nigeria before now. It is the only telecommunication outfit that issues telephone lines to individuals and corporate organization in Nigeria. Nitel was created from the former post and telecommunications. It is the nations national carrier.

Nigeria Telecommunication Plc was in charge of issuing out line to other telecommunications operations both in fixed and wireless lines. Nitel Plc stood as a confesus in the telecommunication sector in Nigeria because it gives the back bone for other operators in the country. The first Managing Director of Nitel Plc was Engr. Augustine Otiji who made Nitel Plc what it is today.

When the government of Chief Olusegun Obasanjo came into power in 1999, deregulation was confessed in some sectors of the economy. This was as a result of the feeling that most government companies and parastatals were operating below expectations and those expected to the making profit were not doing so.

Deregulation is all about private participation in business where government help surrey prvate individuals are allowed to invest in such capital intensive business like telecommunication downstream and upstream oil sector, part activities etc. Incidentally, the telecommunication sector was deregulated and other players like MTN, V Mobile, Globacom, Ster comms etc. came into the business. The Nigeria communication commission was also established to oversee the activities and the operations of those private participants in the telecoms sector.

 

With this development, Nitel found itself in a fio. The need to advertise itself, to creat goodwill and services among its internal and external publics and the importance of discharging its services responsibility to the environment where it is established became emphasized. Telephone subscribes now have a choice and they more likely to invest their money where the would get the best services.

 

  • BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Public relations has become an important activity of most large industries and commercial firms. It is also very vital in branches of government, trade and professional associations, social welfare organizations, labour unions, schools, armed forces and center. (1971:pg 5) defined public relations as he planned effort to influence opinion through society responsible and acceptable performance based on mutually satisfactory two way communications. The British Institute of Public Relations defined it as the deliberate, planned and sustained effort to established and maintain mutual understanding between an organization and its various publics.
