“I am to achieve this by combining archaeology, museum practice and stakeholder engagement to study large and under-researched collections from key Nigerian sites, drawing on archaeological, ethnographic and archival data held in British and Nigerian museums.

“This research will bring new understandings of African history, and of UK/Nigerian research histories, through academic outputs, online resources, exhibitions and outreach in the UK and Nigeria.”

The scholar added that building on his experience as a field archaeologist, educator and collections researcher, and deploying extensive networks, will make his research to have a transformative impacts at the University of East Anglia, Norwich, UK, where he would conduct some research works while helping to remedy the current post-colonial issues concerning the role and value of museum collections.
