The Story Of The Nigerian Montane Forest (Ngel Nyaki) – An Interview With Dr Hazel Chapman

The story of the relationship between Dr Hazel Chapman and the Nigerian Montane Forest in Taraba state, Nigeria is a story that can simply be put as “as fate would have it”, just like Dr Chapman said during my interview with her. It is interesting to know that a childhood experience has become a lifelong career and hobby. When Dr Chapman decided to visit Nigeria in the year 2002, little did she know that she was going to embark on something that would not only be life changing to her but would be a bee-hive of activities for Nigerian and international: PhD researchers, postgraduate and undergraduate students, and the host communities of Ngel Nyaki in Taraba state as a whole.
