Staff Profile

I am an indigene of Enugwu Ukwu in Njikoka Local Government Area of Anambra State, Nigeria. I was born in Zaria, Kaduna State, Nigeria. My primary and junior secondary education took place in Northern Nigeria, while my senior secondary and tertiary education were undertaken in Southeastern Nigeria. I speak Igbo and English languages fluently and Hausa language sparingly. I hold M.Sc. degrees in Geo-information Science and Earth Observation for Natural Resources Management (Faculty-ITC, University of Twente, Enschede, the Netherlands) and Soil Survey and Land Use Development (Federal University of Technology, Owerri, Nigeria). I hold a B. Agric. degree in Soil Science and Agro-climatology (Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, Nigeria). I also hold a Certificate in the Application of Geoinformation Science and Earth Observation in Water Resources and Environmental Management (Faculty-ITC, University of Twente, Enschede, the Netherlands). I am currently enrolled on a PhD programme in Soil Survey and Land Use Planning at the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, Igbariam, Anambra State, Nigeria. I am a lecturer in the Department of Soil Science and Land Resources Management, Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Nigeria. My areas of research interest are Soil Survey, Land Use Planning, Land Evaluation, Land Degradation Studies, Remote Sensing, Geography Information Science / Analytics. I have authored several scientific publications and attended several local and international conferences. I worked as an intern at the Asian Disaster Preparedness Centre (ADPC), Bangkok, Thailand in October/November 2018. I was the Head of the Crop Unit of the Anambra-Imo River Basin Development Authority, Owerri, Imo State, Nigeria (2016 - 2017), the Project Manager of Isi-Uzo Minor Irrigation Project, Ikem, Enugu State, Nigeria (2014 - 2016), and the Land Resources Officer of the Lower Anambra Irrigation Project, Omor, Anambra State, Nigeria (2010 - 2014).
