Name: Halima Ibrahim Abba
Course: LLB Law
University: Kings College London
Age: 21
Interests & hobbies: reading, football, finance and investment banking, developmental economics, movies, fashion, international cuisine, microfinance and social enterprise, travelling
Goals & Dreams: I intend to pursue a masters in international and development economics in Yale University. Thereafter, I would like to further this into a phD in developmental economics with a keen interest in lecturing in Nigerian Universities. I’d like to engage in intense research (by utilizing the vast resources provided by organisations such as the World Bank) and publish various books and articles. This is with the vision of ultimately feeding my research findings into government policy making and contributing to developing the level of economic research in Nigeria. If I am able, I will like to be involved with committees that engage in educational reform in Nigerian universities. Also, I would like to set up a scheme that will sharpen employability skills of bright Nigerians in universities who come from disadvantaged backgrounds ultimately facilitating private sector employment for them.
