IMPORTANT INFORMATION: TIMELY NOTIFICATION OF EVENTS IN THE UNIVERSITY
Attention: Heads of Departments/Directorates/Centres/Units/Chairmen of Organising
Committees
The Centre for Information and Public Relations (CIPR) has observed the practice by some
Departments/ Directorates/Centres of sending very short notices of invitation to the Centre to provide
some of its services such as coverage and or anchorage of events. In some instances, members of staff
of the Centre are "highjacked" merely minutes to such programmes/events or invited through "the
backdoor" without any formal notice.
This development seriously hampers proper planning, and by implication, the quality of
service delivery of the Centre.
Against this background, the University Community is hereby notified that all invitations to the Centre
for Information and Public Relations (CIPR) to provide its services at pre-scheduled events (save
those directly from members of the University Management) must be received latest 72
hours before the event. Please note further, that the Centre would not entertain any invitation to
pre-scheduled event that is not formally conveyed through an official memo, latest 72 hours
before the event.
NB: This notice excludes events that are for publicity only.
