Chapter One: Introduction
1.1 Background of the Study
Public opinion on government policies is shaped by various factors, including media, political leaders, and corporate communication strategies. In Sabon Birni Local Government Area, Sokoto State, corporate communication plays a significant role in shaping how the public perceives government policies. Effective communication strategies can influence public understanding, acceptance, and support for government actions. Recent studies suggest that the way policies are communicated to the public can either enhance or diminish their effectiveness, particularly when transparency, clarity, and consistency are prioritized (Hassan & Adebayo, 2024). This study investigates the role of corporate communication in shaping public opinion on government policies in Sabon Birni.
