Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because first of i was not aware of this i would have voted keep and even at that, you must be kidding me to say that THE FIRST NIGERIAN FEMALE COMBAT HELICOPTER PILOT is not notable, to think that she broke a 55 year old record of the Nigerian Airforce,she is the first nigerian to ever fly the AgustaWestland AW109 fighter-jet in Nigeria, she has fought in numerous battles against insurgency in the North-Central region of Nigeria, one of which she just arrived before her death, she clearly passes WP:GNG and as well as #2 WP:SOLDIER--Brain7days (talk) 11:49, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
