Findings of the study conclude thatpublic relation played a significant role during the 2007general elections. Importantly, the media presenter have a great interest in developing mutual and beneficial relationships with interest group public because they rely on key public such as area/policy experts, think-tank organizations and civil society organizations to collect information and positions on diverse policy issues with a view to drafting proposals.
