By Chris Aligbe The history of aviation in what today is Nigeria dates back to the colonial period with the first flight landing in Kano in 1922 and the first Control Tower built in 1936 in Kano. But this piece is concerned with the period from 1960 – 1979 when Nigeria acceded to independence as a sovereign entity to 2019.
