Peter Obi has hailed 25-year-old Nigerian-born Miracle Izuchukwu for her fabulous feat of becoming the youngest female commercial pilot in the United States (U.S.).
In a tweet, the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate made history for herself and also made her country Nigeria proud.
According to Obi: “My very warm congratulations to Miracle Izuchukwu, 25. She’s Nigerian, and the youngest commercial female pilot in the USA.
“Like her compatriots all over the world, she made her country proud while making history.”
In 2019, Miracle joined the aviation industry as a Flight Attendant with American Airlines.
Miracle had revealed that she always wanted to become a pilot since her first encounter with one while working as a customer service representative.
Earlier in an Instagram post, she spoke of her dream to join the elite group of 7% of females and 1% of black female pilots in the world.
“It’s an exhilarating, yet surreal feeling to introduce myself to the world as a Pilot”, Miracle wrote.
