Ifiemi Felagha, a 36-year-old man in Bayelsa state has built a plane he hopes will move off the ground soon.

Felagha who works in an oil servicing company has, for the past eight years, consistently worked towards actualizing his dream of building a light aircraft aptly christened, Destiny.

He has for long been known to have a knack for building things from the ground up so this comes as no surprise to those who know him.

Well, we know ‘Destiny’ cannot be called an aircraft if it is yet to leave the ground but Felagha has no doubt that this will come to reality.

For now, his makeshift runway in Bayelsa will do.
