Mohammed Tukur Saidu
@mohammedtukursaidu
I quantify oil-price and macroeconomic risk for emerging-market investment and policy decisions.
What I'm looking for
I lead applied energy-economics and macro-financial risk advisory work at the Federal University of Education Zaria for government and private-sector clients across Sub-Saharan Africa.
I use DSGE, NARDL, and GMM models to assess oil-price transmission, exchange-rate pass-through, and inflation dynamics in Nigeria, South Africa, Morocco, and Côte d’Ivoire. My work has produced 15+ peer-reviewed publications and policy briefs adopted by regional economic bodies.
I turn complex quantitative findings into executive summaries, risk matrices, and decision-ready frameworks that support monetary-policy and energy-investment decisions.
I also independently review methodology for six international journals and mentor researchers and postgraduate students in advanced quantitative methods. I’m available for advisory, consulting, and rapid-response project engagements focused on energy, macro risk, and development finance.
