The 27-year-old Nigerian, Dr. Bahijja Raimi-Abraham, made history
by becoming the first graduate of Pharmacy from the University of East
Anglia, Norwich, United Kingdom, to be awarded a PhD in Pharmacy. She
shares her experience with Olabisi Deji-Folutile in this online
interview.
Were you born in the UK?I was born in Lagos, Nigeria in April 1985 and left Nigeria at the age of six when my family returned to the UK – my parents had lived and studied in the UK previous to that. After completing my primary school education in London, I attended secondary school in North Wales, Penrhos College – where my mother and her sisters also were educated; and following my GCSEs I returned to London for sixth form when I studied and passed the Advanced Level examinations (A – levels) in Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Drama.
