I’m a corporate and commercial lawyer. I have an exceptional interest in business law and policy making as regards business, law Hence,this underpins my interest in legal and academic writing . it’s my desire to extend my knowledge in the demanding problems faced by the business industry in Africa and in the world globally, especially in the quest of making decisions that have implications  and can challenge the status quo and create solutions. I have the burning desire to learn the fundamentals in business policies and strategy through synergetic research and innovations in the business world.
