Current Research Activities
Chemical Sciences
DNA cleavage, kinetic study and anti-proliferative activity of Schiff base metal complexes in a bid to identify biologically active compounds for therapeutic applicationsCurrent profession
Current professional activities type:TeachingTeaching of inorganic and organometallic chemistry courses both at undergraduate and graduate levels. I am also involved in supervision of students project in a bid to continue in active research. Considering my interest in mentoring young students, I am presently a course adviser to chemistry graduating students which gives me the privilege of communicating with the students on a personal level.
