my name is Chidi Ojimma,
I am about to start my 3rd semester in June....I just thought it would be interesting to find other nigerians to network with who also have the passion to be a CRNA. I am from Imo state -I'm actually going home for two weeks before the 3rd semester starts :=] anyways, good luck to everyone. I've had thoughts of moving to Houston, Tx after school to practice since it has a large population of nigerians...butttt of course I have to graduate first. lol

I was born in England, but my parents are from Nigeria, so originally that is what I claim. I am laying the ground work to enter nursing school and eventually a Crna program. It is extremely inspiring to see the amount of nigerians working to be CRNAs. I am a yoruba boy, so I hope yall will accept me LOL!

Hi y'all nija people!
I am from Nigeria as well. From Edo state. I have been comming on this site for years but this is my first post. Could not resist givving a shout out to all my nija CRNA or SRNA or soon-to-be SRNA's out there. So I can officially call myself SRNA. Got accepted to St Raphael's program in Connecticut. Will be starting May '10. Sooooooo excited! Hey Gogsgem, I applied to OU as well and was accepted but opted to accept at St Ray's cos its cheaper for me as a resident. So I would have been seeing u next fall! Congratulations!:yeah:to everyone who is in. And for those who are aspiring, keep up the good work. I trust nija now so i know say una go get in. PM me if you need any help. Be glad to support you.

Hi all, I am from Kenya but married to a Nigerian, so I guess I can claim Naija, lol. I'm a new grad (BSN) hoping to one day become a CRNA. Oh, and my hubby is from Abia State.
