PTDF Produces Katsina’s First Female Pilot

Ruqayya Suleiman from Bakori LGA of Katsina State has become the first female pilot from the state. She is one of the 15 pilots trained in South Africa under the full scholarship programme of the Petroleum Trust Development Fund (PTDF) as international certified commercial pilots. 

According to Raqayya's father, her dream of becoming a pilot could not have come true without the scholarship and emotional support from the PTDF.
