Outstanding Nigerian Girl, Serena Omo, Gets Admission Into 13 Universities

This is amazing! The 17-year-old brilliant Nigerian teen named Serena Omo-Lamai, who has been offered admission into 13 universities in the US and Canada has made herself and family proud.

Some of the universities  where she was offered admission include Syracuse University, Emory University, Georgia Institute of Technology, New York University, among others.

Speaking in a telephone interview with PUNCH yesterday, the young achiever who disclosed that she would study medicine as a second degree said:

I feel very honoured and I feel it is an opportunity to work harder. I know that I have to justify the offer. I chose Syracuse University because it has a very good research lab and the offer came with $51,000 scholarship. I have always loved Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Geography.

My hope is to study medicine for a second degree, but I would love to be a medical engineer. Most of the medical equipment in the country are imported and I would like a situation where medical equipment is manufactured here in Nigeria.
