Keywords: psi function, Mean value theorem, q-analogue of the psi function, q-gamma functions, strict logarithmic convexity.

In this short paper, we established q- analogues of some well-known inequalities for the classical Gamma function and some inequalities bounding the ratio , where  is the q-analogue of the Gamma function. The method employed in presenting the results made use of strict logarithmic convexity of a function and classical mean value theorem involving the q-analogue of the psi function. At the end, the proven result provided the q-analogue of some known result concerning the classical Gamma function.
