I would appreciate any help in identifying these pests.

Firstly that looks like beads of sap from the plant not eggs.

I agree. *I don't think the OP has pests to worry about.

Secondly, do you expect a crop up there in Scotland?
If you do I trust you have a large heated greenhouse with growing
lights, I cannot imagine anywhere in the UK where Okra would crop
successfully, Channel Isles perhaps but even there, doubtful.

OK you are growing Okra, but why the picture of something that isn't
Okra?
Do you have the same things on the Okra?
If you have small white scale on the underside of the leaves then they
might be whitefly but you wouls see the flies when you touch the
plants.
