As an environmentalist, I channel skill and expertise into generation of accurate climate mitigation data and partner with the SPSC-UK ESG directory to ensure locally implemented projects in Nigeria, are digitally monitored and accounted for with a global lens. Thus, we are able to accurately report on mitigation efforts under the Nigerian NDCs.
Currently, I lead a team in Climtech Intelligence, an eco-innovation company I founded, with a vision to help producers, reduce their dependence on single-use packaging, to sell products like cooking oil and liquid detergent with our refill technologies.
