Chapter One: Introduction
1.1 Background of the Study
Organizational identity, defined as the collective perception of an organization’s values, mission, and culture, is a critical determinant of its reputation and stakeholder relationships. Corporate communication serves as the primary vehicle for articulating and reinforcing organizational identity, ensuring consistency in messaging across internal and external stakeholders. In the public sector, where trust and accountability are paramount, effective corporate communication is essential for shaping perceptions and building a strong organizational identity (Adebayo & Usman, 2023). Kuje Local Government Area, located in the Federal Capital Territory, represents a dynamic context for examining the impact of corporate communication on organizational identity. The interplay between communication strategies and stakeholder perceptions in this region reflects broader trends in governance and organizational behavior. This study investigates how corporate communication practices influence organizational identity in Kuje Local Government Area, focusing on the strategies employed by government institutions to project their values and mission effectively.
1.2 Statement of the Problem

These challenges not only affect public perceptions but also hinder the ability of government institutions to foster trust and accountability. The absence of strategic communication frameworks further exacerbates the problem, resulting in fragmented and ineffective communication efforts. This study seeks to address these challenges by examining the impact of corporate communication on organizational identity in Kuje Local Government Area, providing insights into the strategies that can enhance the image and credibility of government institutions.
