About

A writer first. A researcher always.

Across civil society, institutional, and development sectors, I help organisations articulate what they do — clearly, credibly, and persuasively. My work spans donor proposals, policy briefs, peer-reviewed research, HR documentation, and strategic communications frameworks.

Trained at the University of Abuja (MA Media Arts; BA Theatre Arts, Second Class Upper), with a former internship at the ECOWAS Commission and ongoing research on media framing of Boko Haram & counter-terrorism policy. Graduate member, Nigerian Institute of Management (Chartered).
