I earned my PhD in Agricultural Economics from the University of Ilorin, Nigeria, and I currently work as a lecturer/researcher at the same institution.

I was a visiting fellow at Cornell University, USA under the Structural Transformation of African Agriculture and Rural Spaces (STAARS) fellowship programme. I also served as a research fellow at International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA). My research interests are in the areas of food security, poverty, labour markets, agricultural development and development economics.
