Public Relations and Digital Media Strategist, Onoriode Akusu, has been named the Fast Rising PR Practitioner of the Year 2025 at the MediaConsortium 3.0 Conference and Awards, held in Lagos.
Akusu, Founder and Lead Strategist at Alphabet PR Limited, was honoured for his outstanding contributions to Nigeria’s PR and communications industry. Fondly known as Onos within the sector, he has built a reputation for blending cultural fluency, media mastery, and narrative strategy to shape perception, build trust, and drive measurable impact.
With over a decade of experience spanning PR and Digital Strategy, Strategic Storytelling, Media Buying, Paid Ads, and Content Syndication, Akusu has successfully executed campaigns across print, digital, and broadcast platforms for blue-chip firms, startups, and high-net-worth individuals.
The organisers described him as a deserving recipient, noting his client-centric business approach and consistent delivery of tangible value.
“This recognition is a testament to your unwavering focus on adding value to clients, a quality widely attested to across the industry,” said Adetunji Faleye, Founder of Brand Impact and one of the organisers.
Before establishing Alphabet PR, Akusu honed his craft at leading agencies including TPT International, D’PRMIX, The Big Signature Group, and MediaCraft Associates, gaining experience that positioned him as a versatile and results-driven practitioner.
The MediaConsortium Conference and Awards, now in its third edition, convenes thought leaders and professionals in communications and media to challenge assumptions, broaden perspectives, and inspire forward-looking ideas.
