This is the historic aircraft with registration number 5N-AER used by OJUKWU during his active period for the emancipation of the Republic of Biafra.

Aircraft name is Hawker Siddeley 125 (HS-125). A presidential aircraft as at the time active.

Even though the Aircraft was flown into the Nigerian College of Aviation Technology, Zaria in serviceable working condition and parked. It is now a SCRAP used for training of Pilots/Aircraft Engineers and viewing for school children who come for excursion. The Aircraft is parked in front of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering School Hangar.

I guess the interior might still be clean since it has not been opened for years but the flown in serviceable aircraft is now looking tattered possibly because it's not being maintained.

Don't you think Nigerian government should allocate a maintenance vote to this historic aircraft or at worst preserve it in the museum as artifact for growing young Nigerians to know that the Biafra/civil war that took the lives of millions is real?

Hmmmm

Rebel's aeroplane..burn d sh1t to ashes, while d coward remain wia he belongs

Do you how much that plane can fetch the FG every year? What do you know?

Everything about Ojukwu was indeed first class, from attending the best primary school to the best secondary school in the world to the best university in the world to using the best cars, marrying the prettiest ladies, flying the best jets of his time, fighting for the best army (Biafran army ) leading the best country that the world did not want to see, to dying in the best hospitals and getting the best burials ever in Africa.

I hope buhari will not add it to his fleet?

The spirit of biafra lives on......

How about the aircraft he used in escaping to Abidjan, dressed up like a lady?
Does anybody know where the skeleton is? .... we can put that up as a reminder to any future cowards.

HERO

Our Hero

The only Man that fought 2 world powers, USA and RUSSIA and an islamic murderous country called Egypt for 3 good years, Nigeria was just like a child grinding the pepper in a kitchen. the man Ojukwu only got prayers from his own supporters because there were air and sea blockade.
We know Ojukwu is not dead.. He went to heaven. AMEN

This will make fp tomorrow, let me invest. Meanwhile they should dash me the flight, I am tired of trekking.

nice one, ojukwu will forever remain a hero

I overheard a supposedly lady saying words like "a rebel's aircraft, burn it to ashes" and I wonder how hatred allows such people sleep at night...and she's a woman. #spits#

I pity people around her cos they are all walking corpses. She can easily poison someone at slightest provocation. Tufiakwa.

You are not ashame to believe in force marriage.


Is One Nigeria by force.?


God forbid I force anyone to be my friend let alone a people.

You think you are doing me? You are doing yourself

Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB group should ask the FG to allow them access to their jet.

Allow Kanu inherit it !!!!
I think he deserve to have the plane as he wants to walk the path too.

Biafra things belong to Biafra! Where Biafra sef? So we can return it.
