How AI is transforming communication strategies – Dominic Nwelih

In recent years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been making waves in various industries, and the communication sector is no exception.

In Nigeria, AI is increasingly being used to craft effective communication strategies that resonate with audiences and drive business results. According to Dominic Nwelih, Founder and Creative Director of Media Accent, a Lagos-based Public Relations Agency, AI is revolutionizing the way communicators approach their craft.

“AI is not just a buzzword; it’s a game-changer for communication strategies in Nigeria,” Nwelih stated.

“By harnessing the power of AI, we can gain a deeper understanding of our audience, optimize our channels, and measure our impact like never before.”

One of the key ways AI is transforming communication in Nigeria is through data analysis. AI algorithms can sift through vast amounts of data to uncover hidden patterns, preferences, and behaviors that inform communication strategies.

“AI helps us uncover insights that would be impossible to gather through traditional research methods,” Nwelih explained.

“This enables us to tailor our messages to specific audience segments, increasing engagement and conversion rates.”

AI is also being used in content creation, with AI-powered tools generating high-quality, engaging content at scale. “AI-powered content tools can help us produce content that resonates with our audience, freeing up human creatives to focus on strategy and innovation,” Nwelih said.

However, Nwelih cautioned against over-reliance on AI, stressing the importance of human intuition and creativity.

“AI is a tool, not a replacement for human insight and empathy. Effective communication still requires a deep understanding of our audience’s needs, desires, and cultural context.”

As Nigeria continues to embrace AI-powered communication, Nwelih’s expertise and Media Accent’s innovative approach are leading the way.

“We’re not just adopting AI; we’re adapting it to our unique Nigerian context. Our goal is to harness AI’s potential to drive meaningful connections, foster brand loyalty, and propel business growth.”
