About

I am a lecturer on the civil engineering, construction management, building surveying and quantity surveying undergraduate and postgraduate programmes at Kingston University, London. 

I started my engineering career with a diploma in civil engineering. After a brief industry internship, I proceeded to Obafemi Awolowo University, Nigeria where I obtained B.Sc. (hons) in civil engineering. Served at Ministry of Integrated Rural Development in Damaturu. I was part of the human capital development programme having obtained state scholarship to study for master's degree in Project Management at Northumbria University, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. I worked at the state investment company where I participated in infrastructure development projects and served on several government teams. Afterwards, I joined Bells University of Technology, Nigeria and taught courses on the project management programme.

In deepening my research skills, I started a doctorate degree in Engineering management at University of Johannesburg, South Africa. As my doctorate was ending, I took an associate lecturer position at the Civil and Chemical Engineering Department, University of South Africa, Johannesburg. After the completion of the doctorate degree where I developed "an integrated sustainable procurement model for the Nigerian Construction Industry", I undertook a post-doctoral research fellowship at the Department of Construction Management and Quantity Surveying, University of Johannesburg.
