Dr. Hakeem Yusuf is currently a Reader at the School of Law, University of
Strathclyde, Glasgow, and the Programme Leader for LLM Human Rights Programme.
He joined the Law School in 2012.
He was formerly a Lecturer and the Director of LLM in Human
Rights and Human Rights and Criminal Justice Programmes at the Law School,
Queen’s University Belfast (QUB) and, also, previously taught at the University
of Glasgow.
His teaching interests are in human rights, transitional
justice, and law and society.
His research interest is at the intersections of rights, law and
governance especially in transitional societies.
In addition to prizes recognising his cutting-edge research, he was
appointed and served as a Commissioner of a Truth Commission headed by a
respected former Justice of the Nigerian Supreme Court in 2011.
In that employment, he worked closely with the Attorney-General on some of the most important criminal and civil cases in Nigeria's post-authoritarian transition to civil rule.
He has consulted for the International Commission of Jurists, Geneva.
He has been a Senior Research Fellow and Director, Sustainable Democracy Programme, Centre for Africa Resources Research and Development (CARRD), Leicester, since 2007.
He is a director of the Educational Support Initiative for Africa (ESIFA), which has donated more than 65,000 books and academic journals worth well over £1.3m to universities and other institutions of higher learning in different African countries in the past few years.
He welcomes press interviews (TV, Radio and Newspapers) and requests for comments on issues/subjects around my research interests.
