David & Destiny PR Consulting, a Lagos based Public Relations outfit will on January 20, 2014 launch The Communicat, a web-based Brand Hub and Entertainment Website.
In a statement issued in Lagos, the company, (which has Atim Nkpubre, a veteran public relations practitioner and Niran Adedokun, a former entertainment correspondent for Saturday Punch and Deputy Features Editor for THISDAY, as principal officers), said that the website would be an inclusive platform for showcasing activities in the marketing communications sector as well as an interview portal for personalities in the music, film and fashion industries.
According to Adedokun, who signed the statement, the website has two principal areas of focus, namely, Brand Hub which focuses on the marketing, advertising, public relations, events, sponsorships, branding, media and related sub-sectors and Entertainment Dialogue, a platform that celebrates personalities in the entertainment industry in Nigeria.
Entertainment Dialogue in the words of Adedokun “can be accessed through www.thecommunicat.com. It would look at the positive things that people are doing in these industries through exclusive interviews intended to provide first-hand information and entertainment for their fans and other stakeholders. We will also have a review and an events column all of which would help in bridging the gap between lovers of Nigerian entertainment and the industry.
The Communicat first made its debut in February 2013 as a niche blog for marketing communications and related businesses, but owing to expansion it has been upgraded to a website that also features Entertainment Dialogue and a review section in addition to Brand Hub. The Communicat will occasionally feature contributors like Toni Kan Onwordi, an award winning writer and communication specialist and a number of others.
