British-born Nigerian Aircraft Pilot, Captain Lola Odunjinrin, has reiterated the need for Africa to harness the potential in the Aviation industry as it can
“Due to its sheer nature as a connector of people and culture, aviation enhances social development, improving people’s well-being to reach their full potential. This social inclusion and investment extend to an economic influence that encourages self-sufficiency. For this to take place, aviation stakeholders need to recognize and uphold the resources at their behest to strive on the journey of connecting African air transport to global markets to ignite such platforms,” he advised.
Life is an adventure, and the road that leads to our actions most of the time starts with curiosity.“When I took the decision to fly solo across the world, it was to make an impact hence the partnership with Project Transcend, to inspire young people, regardless of personal circumstances. Besides being the first African to achieve this feat, more importantly, it highlighted the fact that Africans are capable of breaking barriers through extraordinary attempts.
