    I am an Snr. Consultant Clinical Microbiologist working with the International Foundation against Infectious Diseases in Nigeria (IFAIN). I am the Director of Laboratories in IFAIN and coordinate bacteriology for the DS-1 Africa funded Combatting Antimicrobial Resistance in Africa Using Data Science (CAMRA). In this role, I ensure accurate scientific processes and reporting of the CAMRA deliverables. For the prospective component of CAMRA, my roles include accurate identification of cases and controls and proper management of animal and environmental components of the project. I graduated from Medical School in 2006 and concluded my residency in Clinical Microbiology in 2015. I was appointed a Consultant in the National Hospital and promoted to the role of senior Consultant. I was head of the Department of Medical Microbiology at the National Hospital Abuja before joining IFAIN as the director of Clinical Laboratories.
