Three projects,
one argument.

The Foundation works with underserved Nigerian schools: scholarships, a girl child initiative, technology for classrooms, and a spelling competition for students in Lagos. Its founding conviction is simple, and he says it himself: his own education was paid for by sacrifices his parents could not comfortably afford, and that debt is settled forwards rather than back.

A free educational programme and application that teaches children animal welfare, veterinary science and responsible care. It grew directly out of his own early life in rural Nigeria, and it is aligned with several of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. For a researcher whose doctorate concerned animal disease, it is the same argument made to a younger audience: animal health and human health are one subject.

An initiative connecting researchers, policymakers and international institutions. It is the formal expression of the thread running through his career: a scientist who has also sat in a consulate, worked for a development agency, and led a national scholars' body, arguing that evidence travels further when someone is fluent in both languages.
