A former aircraft cleaner identified as Mohammed Abubakar has been lauded and celebrated by his employer after he got his Fourth Bar and on the path to become a Captain.

Mohammed, according to a tweet posted on twitter by his company, started his career with them 24 years ago as an aircraft cleaner.

The company tweeted:

He Joined the Aviation industry 24years ago as Aircraft Cleaner. Today He is getting the Fourth Bar to becoming a CAPTAIN. Congratulations Mohammed Abubakar from all of us @AirAzman

The post has since gone viral and so many Nigerians have reacted to the success story of Mohammed with many being of the opinion that it could only be attributed to the man's doggedness and if every Nigerian can emulate him, the country will be a better place.

Wow... from Aircratf cleaner you said? This is the kind of inspirational stories I love to hear. Congratulations Captain Muhammad Abubakar.

Another one:

Very inspiring. Consistency and dedication are the key words here.

This one does not look like someone that has the basics of flying a plane. His CPL and PPL licences needs be confiscated.

One must be a University graduate or at least an ND holder to work as an Aircraft Cleaner in Nigeria.. So if he's being given CPL or PPL certificate then he's worth it because he would have gone through all the necessary courses

Wonderful

I have seen many cooks and stewards that eventually became OIMs and Drillers.

Unfortunately, they all went back home when the rigs left
