The African Studies Centre at MUP continuously aims to connect with foreign researchers and institutions. One recent outcome was the visit of Dr. Olayinka Ajala from Leeds Beckett University in the United Kingdom. Dr. Ajala came to screen a documentary titled 'A Place Once Called Home,' one of his research outputs.
This documentary highlights the lived experiences of farmers, reasons for forced migration and displacement, and resulting livelihood transformations in Nigeria. Dr. Ajala also engaged in discussions with students about the content.
