About

Academically, I am a top grade scholar of Communication and Media Studies having had the rare opportunity to study in world class universities of Daystar (BA & MA) and La Pontificia Università Gregoriana, Roma, Italia (PhD).

Because of my vast administration work experience, I am a firm hands-on and results-oriented transformative leader, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit; and in practise, strive to observe Christian and work ethics, teamwork, and team spirit. In the face of challenges, I endure, guided by my religious motto: “to love and serve where you are needed but not wanted, and leaving when you are wanted but not needed.”
