COMMUNICATIONS
SATELLITE LTD.
Led a team of interns producing video content for a government satellite agency. Directed, strategised, and built a social media presence from near zero.
Making government content people actually watch.
NIGCOMSAT — Nigeria Communications Satellite Limited — is a government-owned agency. During my NYSC year, I wasn't placed in a corner writing memos. I was given responsibility: lead the interns, build the content, run the social presence.
The challenge with government content isn't talent — it's institutional inertia. Everything wants to be stiff and corporate. My job was to create content that represented the agency well while actually being worth watching.
The work below represents the videos and posts I helped conceive, direct, and get published across NIGCOMSAT's social media channels.
Intern Team Leadership
Managed and directed a team of interns throughout the NYSC posting. Set the creative brief, maintained quality control, and kept everyone moving in the same direction even without a formal budget.
Video Production Strategy
Defined what kind of content a government satellite agency should actually be putting out — not just press releases, but content people engage with. Directed the shoots and oversaw editing.
Social Media Execution
Managed distribution across Instagram and other platforms. Built the posting cadence, wrote captions, and tracked what was working. Turned a dormant social presence into an active one.
Videos & content I helped create.
NIGCOMSAT Reel — Vol. 1
