Army General, Abubakar Aliyu Jumps From Moving Plane, Makes History by InfoGuru118: 2:36am On Feb 07
Gen. Abubakar Aliyu has made history by being the second General in the Nigerian Army to Jump from a moving plane at the Nigerian Air Force Base, Kaduna, News360 Nigeria reports.

Journalists were told that General Sadiq Aliyu made the history on Wednesday, as Second General in the Nigerian Army to Jump from a Moving Plane.

“The General has in a remarkable display of leadership and bravery, achieved a historic airborne feat, matching the accomplishment of former Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General KTJ Minimah.”

” As the Commandant of the Nigerian Army School of Infantry, Lt Gen Minimah had been the most senior Nigerian Army officer to execute a parachute jump.”

“Brig Gen Aliyu’s jump was more than just a personal achievement; it demonstrated his commitment to the future of the Nigerian Army.

“He was not alone in this feat, as cadets from the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) joined him, marking their first parachute jump and the beginning of their careers as officers in the Armed Forces of Nigeria.”

“By leading from the front, Brig Gen Aliyu reaffirmed the Nigerian Army’s enduring ethos: “No guts, no glory.”

This moment was not just an airborne jump, but a lesson in leadership. For the cadets who jumped alongside him, this experience will be unforgettable, instilling confidence, courage, and a deep understanding of true leadership.”

“Brig Gen Aliyu’s action embodies the spirit of the Nigerian Army, where leaders do not just issue orders, but share in the challenges and triumphs of those they lead.

“As the Nigerian Army continues to shape its future leaders, Brig Gen AS Aliyu’s historic jump will serve as a lasting inspiration, reminding them that leadership is about stepping forward, into the unknown, with those who will one day take up the mantle.”

Unfortunately, the politicians will issue a command and be the first to violate it and go ahead in witch hunting anyone who dares to speak out.

They are called paratroopers. You see his parachute?
Why's that even news?
Next, you will announce the first army general to successfully brush his teeth?

Generals have been jumping since WW2 1945, especially in battle of Market garden.

But it's big deal in 2025 for Nigeria.

So all those billionaire retired generals, never jumped from an airplane.

Chop money generals......

That's why insurgents like Boko Haram, laukarawa dey embarrass us.......Our generals are soft life generals.
By the way nobody, pursue women reach those generals(especially the pregnant looking generals), side chicks, married women all join.
Na so armed robbers kill one general inside his house......not a single bullet was fired by the "general"


From AC in the car to AC in the bedroom.

like brrr

They made it sound like he jumped from a movie plane like Tom cruise, meanwhile nigga had a parachute strapped on.

Nigerians can be very funny sometimes, jumping from a plane or from certain heights is part of basic training for all military cadets, I honestly don't know how and why this is a big deal, or why we should celebrate it, he's a paratrooper for Bleep sake

Soon, A street would be named after him and would be entitled to different plots of land in Abuja simply because he jumped down from a moving plane of altitude of 800feet

I think it's a big deal because Nigeian generals are known to be big men who have so much money... that make them unfit for any combat activities.

I understand why we considered this to be historic

because they mostly jump to their death as result of rickety, malfunctioning parachutes.



For this one to jump and survive, it's indeed worth celebrating. grin grin

He may have written his will before embarking on the suicide mission.


The relief on his face is an evidence.

Nigeria isn't real !
