Adejoke studied at Obafemi Awolowo University in Ile-Ife, Nigeria, earning BSN and MSN degrees in 1991 and 1998 respectively. She moved to the United States in 2001 to further her education, earning a Ph.D. from Michigan State University, East Lansing, Michigan, in 2007.

Nursing research
Adejoke's work with low-income women from diverse ethnic backgrounds in Grand Rapids was published in the Journal of Midwifery & Women's Health in July 2013. She was also the major contributor in a study published in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology in 2009 examining the relationship between the time of recognition of pregnancy and birth outcomes, such as premature births, low birth weight, admission to the neonatal intensive care unit, and infant mortality. Her research focuses on promoting women and adolescent reproductive health with the primary aim of reducing poor maternal and child health outcomes. Her research on aspects of reproductive health knowledge and pregnancy planning regarding three residential, ethnically diverse low-income communities were the partnering neighborhoods with CCDON program. The goal of the project was to reduce the risk of unplanned pregnancy and promote early recognition of pregnancy. Her research illustrates the importance of nursing research and the research generation's relevance to sustaining effective nursing practice, especially within the constantly changing American health care system. Adejoke is a member of the Midwest Nursing Research Society (MNRS) and the CCDON Vice President for Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing, Kappa Epsilon-at-Large. [5] [6] [7] [8]
