Officer alongside 126 others who finished
the Direct Short Service Course 2010/2011
Cadets of the 325 Ground Training Group
at the Nigerian Air Force Base, Kaduna.
Present at the winging ceremony (badge
decoration) was the then Chief of Air Staff, Air
Vice Marshal Mohammad Dikko Umar who
described her training as a 'very laudable
achievement'.
She was quite excited and proud to have made history and said: "It is very uplifting and I feel very proud of myself though it has been very challenging. Coming from the civil war and the civil mentality, the Air Force has done a great job because it has changed our orientation. I believe that all females have equal opportunity to dignify their rights in whatever adventure they choose they can do."
'As a first female pilot I would want to make a mark that would encourage other females to join the military because I believe that all females have equal opportunity to exercise
their rights in whatever they choose to do, I
believe that all female Nigerians who choose to become pilots can do it since I have done it.
This is a remarkable achievement, one that
should drive our ladies to know and see
themselves as been able to achieve the
impossible and break the so called glass ceiling in any sphere you find yourself.
