About Me

🌿 Embark on a Journey of Healing and Discovery with Me

Welcome to my world, where personal narrative intertwines with the wisdom of nature and the richness of human experience. I invite you to join me on a journey that spans over two decades of exploration, discovery, and advocacy for holistic living.

🌱 A Lifelong Pursuit of Wellness and Wisdom

For more than 20 years, I have immersed myself in studying plants and their profound impact on human health and well-being. From the medicinal properties of common herbs to the nutritional advantages of everyday plants, my journey has been guided by a deep-rooted belief in the healing power of nature.

📚 A Multifaceted Path of Exploration

Throughout my journey, I have worn many hats, from priest to philosopher, social scientist to poet, and author to advocate. Each role has shaped my perspective and fueled my passion for promoting healthy lifestyles rooted in the gifts of the earth.

🌍 From Monastic Solitude to Global Advocacy

From the serene confines of the Ewu Monastery, I have delved into the rich tapestry of African knowledge systems, particularly Traditional African Medicine. My research and advocacy efforts have transcended borders, aiming to elevate T.A.M. in Nigeria and across the continent.

✨ Empowerment and Transformation through Paxafricana

Driven by a vision of communalism, societal transformation, and community development, I founded Paxafricana. This organisation serves as a catalyst for realising aspirational aims such as reinventing the African university and empowering individuals and communities to thrive.

🌟 Join me on the transformational journey.

As I continue to explore the intersections of nature, culture, and wellness, I invite you to come along for the ride. Together, let’s unlock the healing potential of plants, cultivate resilience, and embark on a journey of empowerment and transformation. Contact me today to embark on this journey together.

Discover Healing with Paxherbals: Where Tradition Meets Modern Wellness 🌿

At Pax Herbal Clinic and Research Laboratories, our journey is animated by the principles of holistic medicine, guided by the wisdom of centuries and the vibrant spirit of innovation. As the founder and director, I draw inspiration from my vows as a Benedictine member and my ordination as a Roman Catholic priest in 1997. Our commitment to holistic healing is not just a profession; it’s a calling, a passion that drives us to make a tangible difference in the world.

🌱 Embracing Tradition, Embracing Change

Since our inception in 1996, Paxherbals has been at the forefront of herbal research in Nigeria. Our clinic and research laboratory have become synonymous with excellence, offering a sanctuary where traditional African medicine meets cutting-edge research. With numerous accolades and a reputation as Nigeria’s premier herbal institute, we stand as a beacon of hope for those seeking natural remedies and holistic wellness solutions.

📚 Knowledge, Collaboration, and, Transformation

As an adjunct professor at the prestigious University of Ibadan, I am dedicated to educating the next generation about the power of traditional African medicine and holistic nutrition. Through my teachings in Traditional African Medicine and Transformation Studies, I aim to inspire future leaders to embrace indigenous knowledge systems and drive positive change in their communities.

🌍 Building Bridges, Making a Difference

At Paxherbals, we believe in the power of collaboration and community. Whether you’re a client seeking natural healing, a customer looking for wellness solutions, or a potential supporter of our mission, we invite you to join us in our journey. Together, we can transform health policies, empower rural communities, and revolutionise African educational systems. Remember the African proverb: “If you think you are too small to make a difference, you haven’t spent a night with the mosquito.” Every action, no matter how small, can change the course of history.

MIND, BODY, AND SOUL

HOLISTIC LIFESTYLE MATTERS

A wonderful strategy for understanding how to interact with nature constructively is to start by observing, learning, and keeping records of our knowledge systems. The catch is that we are either an affluent community that is happy together or a community that is
unhappy together. If we are all on the same page and work together, then we will all be successful.

Writing

My enthusiasm for writing is proving to be a helpful advantage as I work toward realising my goal of recording and preserving the knowledge systems of Africa. My life's work is to compile and preserve the traditional wisdom and knowledge of African cultures in the fields of African medicine and African culture.

COMMUNITY ORGANISINg

Building a sense of community and working together as a group has proven to be an effective and efficient strategy for getting a lot done in a very short amount of time. The Communitalism idea is where I take this approach and develop it further.

green health

The absence of sickness is not the only component of health. When discussing health, it is essential to consider all aspects, including nature, the human body, and the human spirit. In order to keep a more holistic approach to health, all of these things need to be brought to the forefront.
