Biography
Bello Utoblo has studied mental healthcare and completed PhD in Mental Health from School of Health and Community Studies-Leeds Beckett University, UK. He is keen on developing the understanding of the cause of schizophrenia and approaches to its recovery. He has built this current approach through exploration of the experiences of male service users and their mental healthcare professionals within a community in Northern Nigeria. This approach highlights the occurrence of a transformation in men and women roles in contemporary Nigeria and provides insights into the link between gender as a social factor and men’s management of their recovery in modern African context.
