Research Interest

My research interests span across three areas of sociology: migration and mobility, population health, and crime and deviance. My publications and reviews for refereed journals illustrate these three areas. Although I have written extensively in all of these areas, my current research focuses on their intersection. For instance, I am examining how migration influences and is influenced by health, particularly the health challenges and opportunities facing African migrants and the experiences of African healthcare professionals in Western countries. I am also exploring the patterns of crime committed by migrants and the victimization experienced by African migrants.

In my research, I employ both quantitative and qualitative methods, utilizing both primary data obtained directly from individuals in society and secondary data sourced from social media, the Demographic and Health Survey, the Afrobarometer, and the World Values Survey.

I have contributed to and reviewed articles for various peer-reviewed journals
