Oyinkan Chukuka Tasie joined the Department of Agricultural, Food, and Resource Economics in October 2014 as a fixed-term assistant professor. At AFRE, Oyinkan is primarily associated with the Food Security Group and he advises on legal dimensions of policy and institutional arrangements for its implementation.
Oyinkan obtained his PhD in Law from the University of Aberdeen, Scotland, United Kingdom. For his doctoral study, he was funded by the Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF) administered by the Federal Government of Nigeria. His doctoral research examined Nigeria’s primary legislation and policy relevant to electricity and its ability to enhance the use of renewables to expand access and thereby deliver sustainable development.

As an Associate of the CSID, Oyinkan convened the CSID Research Group on Nigeria, aimed at strengthening research linkages between the University of Aberdeen and tertiary institutions in Nigeria. He has also been involved in community development and youth engagement at the grassroots in Nigeria.
