“They came, picked me up at the airport and from there, they were so friendly to me, like the Irish people, they are so lovely. Someone you don’t even know; you can approach them like maybe asking for directions.” After working in the nursing home for a few years, Ojo got a job in the stroke unit of St Mary’s Hospital. She was pregnant when she applied for the job.
Ojo feels that the supports Ireland has in place for stroke patients, and elderly people in general, are good. “That is one important thing like they’re listening to their people, it’s good for the Government to listen to the people, to what they want, and I give kudos to the Irish Government.”“I came to Ireland single, I got married here, I had my children here, I got my house here, I’m established in this place. This place is not even like a home for me, it is a home for me.
Another thing that surprised Ojo about Ireland is the housing crisis, and the difficulty she experienced in finding creche places after she had her son and daughter in 2019 and 2021.
