I am a Political Scientist with a PhD in comparative politics and have taught and researched in different areas of Political Science with a major focus on comparative politics, political behaviour, African government and politics, and Public Administration.

I am a seasoned scholar in the area of political science with publications in different reputable journals across the globe. I am a researcher of the processes of the mobilization and articulation of interest and power in the state and society. I study these processes as they manifest in: ethnic and racial relations; nationalism; democracy and democratization; cultural and elite politics; cities, space and temporality; and social thought.

I have authored scholarly articles in both local and international journals.
