The National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) has appointed retired Brig-Gen. Sani Usman Kukasheka as Faculty member of its Business School.
Mr Kukasheka voluntarily bowed out of the Nigerian Army as its Director of Public Relations after more than 35 years of meritorious service.
A statement issued by the Coordinator of NOUN Business School, Prof. Samaila Mande, said the former army spokesman was appointed because of his wealth of experience.
Mr Mande expressed optimism that as a public relations and communications expert, Kukasheka would bring his great wealth of knowledge and experience to bear in his new appointment.
He said with Mr Kukasheka’s appointment, the retired general would chair the Crisis Communication, Public Relations and Security Studies sessions of the school.
Mr Kukasheka is a graduate of Bayero University Kano, where he obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in Mass Communication and also has a Master’s degree in Media, Peace and Conflict Studies.
He is also a fellow of the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations and member of the prestigious National Institute of Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS), Kuru in Jos.
