Captain Chinyere Kalu was born in 1970. She is the first female pilot in Nigeria. A woman grew up in a very supportive big family. She decided to begin her career in Aviation because of her adventurous aunt. Her aunt was well famous for traveling abroad a lot of times. They had the matriarch in their family, so her aunt approved Chinyere’s decision and so a lady began her career into aviation.

The first female Nigerian pilot is Chinyere Kalu, who studied in Anglican Girls Grammar School, which is in Yaba, in Lagos. Then she was trained as a Commercial and Private Pilot. She also took a few aviation courses in Zaria, UK, and the USA.

Chinyere Kalu always wanted to travel the world and have an adventurous lifestyle. So she decided to take up the truly male dominated and very difficult career in order to become the first female pilot in Nigeria.

Nigeria first female fighter pilot is married to Mr. Okoli Kali and has children. 6 years ago President Goodluck Jonathan proclaimed her the Chief Executive and Rector of Nigerian College of Aviation Technology (which is mostly known as NCAT) - which is the biggest aviation training institute in the whole continent.

Before that, Chinyere Kalu was leading the College’s Flying School. There Chinyere Kalu worked as a contractual instructor.

There's one female pilot,the late Captain Hadiza Oboh.She was murdered in 1998 by her domestic staff. She's reputed to be the first female pilot with the defunct Nigeria Airways...Lets be sure of the fact.

Nigeria first female fighter pilot

She's the first Nigerian female commercial pilot and not the first Nigerian female combat pilot (armed forces) - BIG difference!

The first female combat pilot is a hausa girl; the first female Nigerian airways pilot is a hausa girl; the first female helicopter pilot is a Yoruba girl. So nothing spectacular here. The tribe factor doesn't come into play. Rather, it was just a matter of OPPORTUNITY in these cases.

Wrong! That was captain Hadiza, and she was the first female Nigerian airways pilot, not the first commercial pilot. It was notable being that Nigerian airways was the national airline at the time. Captain Chinyere Kalu is undoubtedly and inarguably the first female commercial pilot in Nigeria.

It's absolutely true! She's the first female commercial pilot. And tribe aside, she's also a wonderful woman that deserves to be celebrated. She earned it! A true remarkable female role model, not like all those useless Gifty and co that our decadent society continues to promote in the media.

In Biafraa, women are treated like men and posses just as equal rights! Not the same in Arewa and Oduwanikistan!
Must you be tribalistic in everything? Guess what?
first female Professor In Nigeria is an afonja, Elizabeth Abimbola Awoliyi was the first female physician in Nigeria, Chief ‘Folake Solanke (SAN) is the first female Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Dr. Abimbola Ayodeji Abolarinwa is first female Urologist, Captain Abimbola Jayeola (Captain AB) is N igeria’s First Female Helicopter Captain, Mo Abudu She is the first woman in Africa to launch a pan African TV and so many other females from other tribes. So what was your point?

She's a NIGERIAN biko.

Btw, Hadiza who was murdered in 1998 was actually the First Female to pilot an aircraft in Nigeria.
She conquered the sky when the defunct Nigerian Airways was still in operations in the early 80s
