Profile Summary

I am a PhD Candidate in Defence and Strategic Studies at the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA), Kaduna, with extensive academic and professional expertise in national security, defence and strategic studies, governance, conflict analysis, and evidence-based policy research. My work focuses on complex security challenges, including insurgency, farmer–herder conflicts, maritime insecurity, and emerging digital security issues, and translating rigorous research into practical policy and institutional solutions. I hold a Master’s degree in Defence and Strategic Studies and a Bachelor’s degree in International Relations. I have strong training and hands-on experience in qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-methods research, including research design, survey and interview development, field data collection, thematic and policy analysis, and scholarly writing. My PhD research currently examines farmer–herder conflicts and national security dynamics in Nigeria, with a focus on Oyo State, involving extensive fieldwork, stakeholder engagement, and evaluation of policy responses. In addition to my academic role, I have served as a research consultant, academic assistant, and analyst for senior scholars, institutions, and research-driven organizations. I have contributed to peer-reviewed publications, edited volumes, and policy-oriented research outputs, with several manuscripts currently in press or under review. My research interests span counterterrorism, counter-insurgency, internal security management, maritime security, artificial intelligence and security governance, and civil–military relations. I also work extensively as a professional ghostwriter, supporting clients with the preparation of policy documents, strategic reports, speeches, academic manuscripts, briefing notes, presentations, and high-level analytical content. Many of these assignments require discretion and anonymity, and I am experienced in producing polished, original work that reflects the client’s voice, institutional context, and strategic objectives without attribution. Confidentiality and data privacy are central to my professional practice. I adhere strictly to ethical research standards and ensure that all client data, documents, identities, and project details are treated with the highest level of discretion. I do not reuse, disclose, or repurpose client materials, and I am comfortable working under non-disclosure expectations, sensitive institutional contexts, and restricted information environments. On Kolabtree, I support academics, policymakers, consultants, NGOs, and institutions seeking high-quality research, confidential ghost-writing, policy analysis, academic editing, and strategic content development. Clients value my analytical depth, methodological rigor, respect for privacy, and ability to deliver clear, credible outputs within agreed timelines.
