It’s a pity Tolu didn’t live long enough to do more for herself and Nigeria

Saphire16:

GUARDIAN NEWSPAPER
Tolulope Arotile: Jonathan pays tribute to
Nigeria’s first female combat pilot

Former President, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has described late Nigeria’s first
female helicopter combat pilot, Tolulope Arotile as a brave patriot who pushed
her self beyond limits to demonstrate her uncommon love for the nation.
Jonathan in a statement he personally signed on Thursday said his
administration paved the way for the training of females at the Nigeria
Defence Academy (NDA) so as to give equal opportunities to all men and
women of the armed forces.

The statement reads:” My heart goes out to the family and colleagues of late
flying officer, Tolulope Arotile.

“She was a brave patriot who pushed her self beyond limits to demonstrate her
uncommon love for our dear nation. In the process, she made us all proud.
“In 2011 when my administration introduced females into the Nigeria Defence
Academy to train as combatants, for the first time, it was to give equal
opportunities to all men and women of the armed forces and encourage highly
driven female officers like Tolulope to excel in her chosen career, irrespective
of their gender.
“I feel sad that such a young gallant officer would die at the prime of her life. I
am however encouraged by the fact that she stood out as a pleasing fulfilment
of our dream of an all-embracing Nigeria armed forces devoid of
discrimination.
“By dedicating her young life to protect and defend Nigeria’s strength, honour
and unity, her memory and legacy will continue to serve as a great inspiration
to our youth especially our girls.”
