About

I am a legal and policy researcher focused on international financial law, African capital markets, cross-border investment, and economic integration under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). My central interest is how legal and regulatory frameworks can enable capital to move more effectively across African borders.
As a Junior Research Fellow in International Financial Law at the Lex Lata Centre for Int'l Law & Comparative Constitutionalism in Africa,  I research regulatory fragmentation in African capital markets and the prospects for harmonisation under AfCFTA. My undergraduate long essay examined statutory barriers to AfCFTA implementation in Nigeria and received a distinction.
My writing spans financial regulation, tax reform, arbitration, and international law, with contributions published on platforms including Kluwer Arbitration Blog. Internships at Aluko & Oyebode,  G Elias,  and Broderick Bozimo & Company  developed my experience in legal research, evidence analysis, court processes, advisory opinions, and dispute strategy. I also serve as Company Secretary at MedixDeck,  overseeing its legal and regulatory posture and interfacing with the board, regulators, and shareholders.
I graduated with First-Class Honours in Law from Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria,  as the Best Graduating Male Student in the Class of 2026. I am an NHEF Scholar (2025)  and a Student Member of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. I speak English and French fluently, alongside Igbo, Hausa, and Zarma.
I welcome opportunities for research, professional collaboration, and continued learning in international financial law, capital markets regulation, cross-border investment, and African economic integration.
