College of Animal Science and Livestock Production (COLANIM) within the Federal University of Agriculture,
Abeokuta (FUNAAB) as an Assistant lecturer on the 14 th of March, 2023. Since joining the department, have been
involved in carrying out research activities, supervising and training undergraduate students. Graduated in 2014
with Second Class (lower division), proceeded for his Postgraduate Diploma Degree and Master of Agriculture
Degree respectively which was successfully completed in 2021. Currently pursuing his Ph.D. studies with a
notable emphasis on Forage Production and its Utilization. His research interests are focused on a variety of
areas which include, pasture agronomy, cultivation and evaluation of plants with forage potential, Forage
Conservation and their utilization. A member of the Society for Grassland Research and Development in Nigeria
(SOGREDEN), and beyond academic and professional endeavors, I possesses a strong passion for learning,
teaching, offering guidance, and embarking on adventures.
