Shakina Chinedu is a lawyer/legal consultant, health practitioner and now a lady builder. Shakina was born in the UK to Antiguan parents and lived in the UK before returning to Afrika -The Gambia. Most of her career in the UK Shakina worked with public and private organisations implementing equality laws in policy practice and procedures. Using her legal and training skills Shakina set up her own consultancy where she worked with around 15 police forces across the UK training PC's up to Chief Constables in community relations and cohesion as well as impact assessments.
Shakina served 2 terms on the Northamptonshire and National Police Authority where she chaired the Stop and Search group as well as advised on community policing. Later on in her career, she moved into education regulation and higher education policy development and was the race and religion policy lead at the University of Oxford. Before moving to The Gambia Shakina started a natural health business - Nubian Health where she manufactures natural skincare products that are chemical and preservative-free.
The products utilise raw material from The Gambia as well as essential oils. Since living in Gambia an opportunity arose for Shakina to get involved in land sales and building and that is how she started creating housing estates for returning Afrikans.
