Margaret Ojo

A pragmatic, strategic and performance driven Project manager & Operations lead with over 15 years professional experience working across a multitude of health care initiatives, projects and programmes. Being highly skilled in the end-to-end delivery of value-added solutions/process improvements. Over the years, Maggy has been able to manage the delivery of national professional resources, projects and initiatives to support the promotion and sharing of best practices for nursing staff.

I was born in the UK but lived my formative years from 6-19 in my home country Nigeria, until I returned back to the UK. Living in Nigeria from during my teenage years exposed me to the trauma a lot of Nigerian women went through in terms of various forms of domestic abuse. Coming back to the UK from a region of the world where rights of women and minorities are often abused or in some cases non-existent has helped sharpen my orientation and understanding of the value of upskilling my knowledge and confidence in monitoring and mentoring on how to navigate the violations of rights of diverse groups.

In a recently published book; Essays on Gender Inequality, Migration Drivers, and Realising Africa’s Potentials by Olivia J-Olajide Aluko, I wrote a chapter on domestic abuse in Africa, with a focus on Nigeria, highlighting the impact of domestic violence against men & women in Africa and how socio-cultural values have played a role in influencing this.

While being passionate about my day job, I am also a content writer, avid reader and a Chef on the weekends.
