    He was my teacher and project supervisor, during my undergraduate days at the Department of Mass Communication, Bayero University Kano. He’s scary at Research so you can imagine what i went through to graduate with a ‘B,’ in my final year project. He taught us Research Courses in, i think, 300L, forgive my rusty memory.
