Academic Qualification
PhD (Aquaculture and Fisheries Management) University of Agriculture, Abeokuta Nigeria 2005
M.Sc (Hydrobiology and Fisheries) University of Ibadan 1994
BSc (Zoology) Usman Danfodio University, Sokoto, Nigeria 1991

Research Profile
My main field of research is Aquaculture and Fisheries Management. The aspects of ongoing and proposed research work in my field are:
 The study of Limnology and Plankton abundance in relation to fish production of some water bodies in South-West of Nigeria
 The use of Shrimp Waste to formulate feeds in fisheries management and Aquaculture
 The design, construction and management of Recirculating aquacultural system
*Design of some fish smoking kiln
 Development of new foods from fish trash and under utilized fishes
 I am also involved in Organic aquaculture; I have been involved in the use of maggot (wet and dry) as alternative feed in fisheries. I am also involved in the study of the food and non-food uses of fish.
 I collaborate with National Institute For Freshwater Fisheries to carry out research on "Suitability Of Cow Dung, Poultry Droppings And Their Combination As Source Of Nutrients Sustenance Of Phytoplankton Culture".
 I also collaborate with Lagos State University to carry out research on " Evaluation of Animal Protein Mixture as Replacement for Fishmeal in Practical Diets for Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822) Fingerlings"
 Right now I am working on the use of phytoextracts in inducing breeding on Clarias gariepinus aimed at solving the problem of hunger and poverty under UNAAB IFSERAR program.
