Message

At the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control, I support integrated disease surveillance and response by checking data quality, summarising reportable disease data, and maintaining national surveillance databases. I also coordinated the National One Health Tripartite Joint Risk Assessment workshop, bringing together human, animal, and environmental health participants.

My research has covered reproductive health, tuberculosis, and substance use in pregnancy, with peer-reviewed papers published in 2024 and 2025, including one as lead author. At Bingham University and Zankli Research Centre, I supported public health research and taught research methodology; I also founded and continue to run Wear Olaedo, an independent fashion business.
