A former militant who has trained and qualified to become a pilot has achieved a great feat after flying passengers aboard a flight to Owerri, Imo State.

 

John Paul Nku who is a first officer with Air Peace is a beneficiary of the Amnesty programme organized for ex-militants in the Niger Delta region. He reportedly underwent his training in Jordan.

 

 

While expressing his joy at the feat, his friend Wabiye Idoniboyeobu took to Facebook to share the photos writing: "So the guys name is John Paul Nku. A first officer with Air Peace. Smooth flight. You need to see the look on people’s faces when the information trickled out that it was an Amnesty Beneficiary in the Cockpit. Everyone wanted a picture with him…Amnesty is working. Let’s give the boys a chance."
