"I always knew I wanted to do something different— something bold. And I chose aviation specifically because I had never seen or even heard of a pilot from Dagbon, and I wanted to change that. And Alhamdulillah, I have changed that narrative."
After completing Northern School of Business Senior High School (SHS), Hamida Fuseini started as a student pilot, then transitioned to a private pilot and subsequently to a commercial pilot with an instrument and a multi-engine rating.
