Prof. Jamiu Oladipupo AZEEZ (Professor of Soil Chemistry) graduated was born on the 17th of march 1972.
He graduated from the University of Agriculture, (now Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, FUNAAB), Nigeria as the best Departmental graduating student in 1997. He completed his Masters’ (2000) and PhD (2005) degrees in Soil Chemistry from the same University. Between 2002 and 2005, he was a research fellow at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture, and also a post-Doctoral Fellow and later Visiting Scientist/Lecturer at the Tshwane University of Technology, Pretoria, South Africa between February 2009 and October 2010. His principal research interests are in Soil and Environmental Chemistry, Soil Fertility and Pollution Studies. He became a professor of Soil Chemistry at the age of 45 years and was the Principal Investigator in a collaborative research sponsored by Royal Society-DFID Africa Capacity Building Initiative Programme Awards in December, 2014 with a total value of One Million, One Hundred and Thirty-Two Thousand, One Hundred and Sixty-Two Pounds (£1,132,162.00). He was also a member, Steering Committee of the Nigeria Soil Health Consortium Southwest_Southsouth Node (SW_SS NgSHC) sponsored by Alliance for Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA). He is a highly motivated, dedicated and hardworking scholar, and a teacher per excellence of international repute. He is very productive and with great passion for scientific research and teaching. He has published over one hundred (100) articles in international peer reviewed and high impact journals and conference proceedings. Prof Azeez also review articles for over twenty-five journals and have supervised over thirty-eight post graduate students and over fifty undergraduate students. He is a registered soil scientist and also member of Soil Science Society of Nigeria, International Union of Soil Science and International Society of Organic Agriculture Research. Professor Azeez is an International Soil Consultant, he recently did a short-term technical assistance to the project “Grain Research and Innovation (GRAIN)” with Michigan State University, United States on “Improving Soil Sampling and Analysis for 4 Provinces in Afghanistan.
