We have all stumbled upon inspirational quotes such as “work hard in silence, let your success make the noise.” However, how many times have we seen it come true? Mohammed Abubakar restored our faith in dreaming big, and his story is bound to make you fight harder to achieve your goals.
This Nigerian man began working as a cleaner at Air Azman about twenty-four years ago. Yet how he went on to become a cleaner is also a fascinating story. After he finished school, he went to Kaduna to get enrolled in Kaduna Polytechnic. Unluckily (or luckily), he was late and failed to get the admission.
Being unemployed wasn’t on the mind of Mohammed Abubakar and so, he took up the casual job of an aircraft cleaner. It was a rather small amount of money and many people thought that he would not last for long in this menial job. However, Abubakar persisted and, soon, he was employed as the ground staff. He learned a lot about the aviation industry.
After a great performance, Abubakar got the chance to become a cabin crew member at an amazing salary. He later moved to Aero Contractors as a flight attendant. When Aero Contractors began doing scheduled services, he provided some valuable input that helped the company. Pleased by Abubakar's cooperation, the Deputy Managing Director gave him a huge salary. Abubakar was surprised.
But he didn’t spend the money right away. He talked to the managing director, took his advice and went on to fulfill his dream: becoming a pilot.
