Meet The Yuongest Pilot in Africa Today- and He's Nigerian- Proud!

 A 20-year-old Nigerian, Favour Odozor, has emerged as the youngest with the Commercial Pilot License (CPL) in both Nigeria and South Africa.
Mr. Odozor who graduated alongside 15 other trained pilots at the Afrika Union Aviation Academy (AUAA), Mafikeng, South Africa on Saturday was described as the new hope of the African aviation industry.
Capt. Allan Roebuck, Director of AUAA, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Johannesburg that Mr. Odozor completed all the 37 flying procedures in record time.

“The academy is proud of this young Nigerian, with the award of license and certificate to him. Today, I can say he is the youngest commercial license pilot in both Nigeria and South Africa.
The AUAA director noted that it requires a lot of hard work, focus, punctuality and discipline to be trained as a commercial pilot.
“It is not enough to be academically sound to be a good pilot. It requires focus, punctuality, and discipline to get the commercial license and certificate.
“It has been a long road for the group of qualified pilots to obtain their licenses. With the award of certificate, they can fly commercial planes,’’ Mr. Roebuck said.
He said the new pilots underwent two years of rigorous training and 37 flying procedures.
On his part, Mr. Odozor said he had always dreamt of becoming a pilot.
“Flying a plane has been my childhood dream, and I am happy today that I’m a licensed commercial pilot at the age of 20.
“I never expected myself to be the youngest Nigerian to get the commercial pilot license, not to talk about in an advanced country like South Africa. I was just pursuing my childhood dream of being a pilot.
