Somebody must be first... I don't see any big deal about being first. It's a given. Anything that we do as humans must always have somebody that did it first. Every naija governor will build something and say it's the first of its kind in west Africa. It just kills my interest in whatever is being sold to me.

Meet The First Muslim Female Pilot In Kano



In order to reach her goal and become a top-ranked pilot, a Muslim woman has completed piloting Programs at Mid East Aviation Academy Jordan. She was among 100 of students who were sponsored by Kano Kwankwasiyya Government to study piloting at the Academy.


But it would be noted that Fatima hasn’t become a female pioneer in this difficult and challenging profession.

Two months ago all media reports exploded with the news about Nigeria’s first female helicopter captain, Abimbola Jayeola (Captain AB), emerged and made history that day.

Moreover, a female pilot has recently appeared in Katsina state. Ruqayya Suleiman was in the group of 15 other pilots trained in South Africa under a full Petroleum Trust Development Fund scholarship as international-certified commercial pilots.

The young woman not only got a unique profession, but managed to break the cultural barrier by acquiring a higher education which is quite unusual for girls from her area.

Ignorance is disturbing you.

What if they say the first Nigerian to be a pilot, will you still ask, must "Nigeria" be tagged there?

I'm not a Muslim, but including religion there is for a purpose which is... "THE FIRST MUSLIM FEMALE PILOT"

Even the white people tag anything base on the info they are passing.

Give this guy 5 bottles of orijin for his Orijinality!

This is not entirely correct sir. Before Suleiman is the fifteen year old Kimberly Anyadike from Anambra State who is believed by CNN to be the youngest black pilot the World over

Re: Fatima Abba-Gwadabe The First Commercial Pilot In Kano by laudate: 2:49pm On Aug 08, 2015
This issue has been discussed extensively on another thread. It is old news. There have been several female pilots in the past. There are now 127 female pilots in Nigeria, according to informed sources.

Aero Contractors has one of the largest female crew in West Africa. undecided undecided http://www.jetlifenigeria.com/2013/07/aeros-fly-girls/

Read the story here: https://www.nairaland.com/2158816/fatima-abba-gwadabe-first-muslim

On the other hand, Blessing Liman is the first female military pilot from the North. She is from Kaduna State. Liman becomes the first female combatant pilot not only in Nigeria, but in the entire West African sub-region and the Nigerian Air Force.



BECOMING NAF'S FIRST FEMALE COMBATANT PILOT

Liman was commissioned as a Combat Flying 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'.

Before her winging on Friday, 27th of April, 2012, she and other pilot officers (she was the only female) went for 12 months intensive flight training in various nations of the world -United States, Greece, Belarus, United Kingdom, Pakistan and Egypt. The Federal Government spent billions of naira on the training as $650,000 was spent on each trainee. The team came up with 14, well-trained fighter jet pilots. She enlisted into the Nigerian Air Force in July 2011 and was commissioned on the 9th of December, 2011. After her commissioning, she was nominated for the 2012 THISDAY Award for Excellence. http://www.nigeriafilms.com/news/21780/33/blessing-liman-nigerias-first-female-military-pilo.html
