The Public Relations Society of Kenya (PRSK) has released its annual compilation of the Top Public Relations Practitioners in the country. Featured in the PR Digest publication, Njideka Akabogu, the Regional Manager for East Africa at ID Africa, has been recognized as a prominent figure in Kenya's Public Relations sector.

This accolade not only highlights Akabogu’s significant contributions and growing influence within the PR landscape across the continent but also signifies the expanding reach and impact of BHM and its subsidiaries throughout Africa and beyond.

As a part of BHM, ID Africa has consistently shown its dedication to assisting brands, companies, governments, and organizations across Africa in effectively communicating with their key audiences. With recent expansions into East African markets such as Tanzania and Kenya, ID Africa is instrumental in BHM’s mission to deliver impactful ideas and enhance strategic communications for leading brands and organizations.

“The PRSK’s recognition of Njideka is a proud moment for us at BHM and ID Africa. It’s a reflection of the quality of talent on our leadership team in Africa. As we continue to expand our footprint in East Africa and beyond, we remain committed to delivering innovative communications solutions that create value for our clients and partners,” said Femi Falodun, Executive Director at BHM.

Recognized by the Financial Times in 2023 and 2024 as one of Africa’s fastest-growing companies, BHM has continued to earn its place as a global leader in the Public Relations and Communications industry. 

In a discussion with PRSK, Akabogu articulated her vision for the future of public relations, stating, “It is essential that the governments and businesses we support recognize our value and depend on our expertise for critical decisions. To truly communicate for impact, we must move beyond traditional practices and spearhead the change we wish to see in the world.”

With ten years of experience in media and communications, Akabogu has provided consultancy for renowned international brands such as Showmax, DStv, Heineken, Paramount, and Betway. Her career, which started as a content strategist and fashion editor, has been distinguished by numerous achievements, including being featured on YNaija’s New Establishment List in 2019 and Brand Communicator’s 2022 35 Under 35 Top Marketing Professionals in Nigeria.

The list also highlights other prominent figures, including Omar Kibulanga, Head of Communications & PR at Mombasa County Public Service Board; Lilian Nganda, Head of Customer Communications and Events for the Indian Sub-Continent, Middle East, and Africa (IMEA) Region at AP Moller – Maersk; and Eric Kiniti, Group Corporate Relations Director at East African Breweries PLC.
