Summary of Profile

So far in The Federal Polytechnic, Ilaro.  I have worked in two departments as a lecturer between 2017 to 2023 which were, Office Technology and Management (OTM) and Mass Communication and now Multimedia Technology.  I have had the opportunity to deliver papers at conferences both inside and outside the country alongside other academic peers. In addition, two books on broadcast journalism were co-written with two of my colleagues at the Polytechnic, and eighteen journals and twenty conferences have been produced in collaboration with colleagues. In addition, I have the honour of receiving a TETFUND Sponsorship to pursue my PhD in the field of Office Information and Management. Also participated in the grant award by the UNESCO-UNEVOC BONN AWARD for the Institution.  Furthermore, I have participated in fourteen seminars and workshops both within and outside the Institution and also worked as the Department's Examination Officer from 2022 to 2024 and part of several committees in the Institution.
