most of their statement is based on hear say and mere allegations, their is no fact to back it up seriously, but it surprises me how most of us are quick to condemn our own .a lot of our politicians are laundering money to USA, I have never seen US government coming directly against them, this is the only air line that is proudly indigenous,Nigeria should wakeup seriously.
It’s not hear say. They must have the original copies of alleged fake documents with fingerprints of whoever submitted them. If it was submitted electronically, they have the IP address of the origin.

Where did I accuse , Infact I am learning , early next year I will be involved in the purchase of two planes for a business and I am also learning from this how we can handle the funds .I am great supporter of Onyeama but also a realist , I have gone through the fabric of the case and I have seen where he made a mistake ..he actually laundered money maybe by mistake but he did .

Now he just has to prove to them it wasn't done in bad faith to the Americans meaning , it wasnt done to constitute criminality in any guise ...Since 911 Americans don't joke with any form of money laundering .
No wahala we are all seeing how they are helping us in fight against money laundering seriously. I pray onyenma will come out of this strong, the battle to bring him down has already started, I am been a little emotional on this seriously. I have always hated Britain and America because of how they have made their country a self heaven 4 our politicians to launder .coming against an investor Is a no no 4 me.their investigation is not going to help our economy in any way seriously, to hail with America and what they think about us.

What is alleged is that he used documents from Springfield Aviation LLC stating they had agreement to sell planes to him, to obtain LC. It turns out that Springfield Aviation is owned by him and the documents were fake. Furthermore upon getting the money into the US, some were diverted.


In business there is Smtn called subcontractors and even tinubu and many other oil moguls do it. Nothing new here.

The fact the subcontractor never actually owns the goods doesn’t make them a fraudulent coy.

Oga they are not saying your Letters of Credit emanated from a fake source nor are they saying they didn't pass through Nigerian banks , they are saying you forged documents and lied about the intent you planned to use the funds because instead of jejely buying the plane you claimed you wanted you instead redistributed the same into various accounts in the US ( huge mistake) which automatically breached US anti money laundering funds.. Onyeama I will advise you get you best legal team ready as the implications of your action are more serious than you think to those Americans see below some implications of your actions sir:
.

1: You could be charged for funding Terrorism if a single dime from that money he transfered mistakenly finds it way to the hands of a terrorist and the US anti terror act is no joke.

2 .You could be charged for breaching US anti drug laws if a single dime is traced to any drug dealer even by mistake.

3. You could be charged with bringing corrupt money into the US if a single dime is traced to any politically corrupt money anywhere.

4 . AIR PEACE will hence forth find it hard to pay for it's aircrafts parts in the us as well as buy new planes because it's letters of credit will not be honored .

5 . You can forget his pending aircraft orders with Boeing and Embraer as this will not happen for now because the Americans now own both Boeing and Embraer.

This is not good for you Onyema trust me
He will go to airbus for business. After all they are doing better than Boeing currently

[quote author=SalamRushdie post=84288520]

Then he should have left the money in Springfield aviation account or reversed it back to Nigeria..[/quote

Your earlier post made quite a lot of sense.

However, leaving the money in the Springfield account is not a viable idea if the money can be used to buy planes from another company or even spare parts for existing aircraft in its fleet.

The most important thing here is if he was in constant communication with CBN and they were aware of the various changes as regards the recipients.

If he is able to back this info up with documents he will be in the clear sooner than later.

Of course there is some substance in the allegation by the US but it is still what it is .....an allegation untill proven.

Good luck to him.

Sad! So sad enough! It seems like the USA is all out to bring down any Nigerian who seem to be smart enough. It's what they have always done to African countries. And our cripple government do not understand the international supremacy battle of transcontinental conquest, even when they do understand, they simply can't do anything to protect the nation's potential stars and businesses. Instead, they simply bow to western influence and pressure and just get involved in unwarranted and unnecessary cooperation. Onyeama may have made a mistake somewhere, but isn't there at least one billionaire American business entrepreneur who is guilty of one thing or the other. What the noise about laws that are consciously made to empower some and enslave the others. Their so called law would not investigate their own entrepreneurs and punish them appropriately, they would only bring their useless charges inspired by hate and greed to us defenseless Africans.. Cause we are at their mercy as we have always been. Little wonder Iran & North Korea decided to buckle up and they have survived oppression so you can't impose shit on em. Despite American clear prevalence of hate towards us, I just can't blame US and their western partners anyways. No be their fault, it all because of our clueless leaders who continue to be clueless as if poverty, stupidity and slavery is their calling. Onyeama, God would see you through, for bringing back our stranded, you are a good man.. You may have dark a dark spot on your bright skin, but no man holy pass. Dat Ogoni boy.

thanks bro..many are seeing this as a Media or tribal case not minding the effects this portends for Nigeria... the Case isn't about his money or not.. CBN etc.. its about tendering a fake LC to a USA company and redistribution of the monies from the bank account to numerous accounts in the USA....
the question we shd asked is..did he buy the aircrafts the monies were budgeted for?/
let him defend himself but I doubt if the USA DOJ wouldst have carried out forensic and financial investigation before coming to publicise it..
go on Twitter and see how many are calling tinubu, otedola dangote and others.. if the USA has something on you..they don't and will never hide it..they make it known and anyone who is innocent will clear his name.. but our people just see one good side of a man and believe the man will be an Angel..not knowing that there are two sides to a man...
let the law takes it course..

There was an incident that happened in between the American and Canadian border.

A tourist at the Canadian border was told once you pass this line, you are in American territory. She felt excited. She decided just to enter American territory for a few minutes and return. Unfortunately, what was a simple joke turned into something very serious. American immigration caught her and she's facing the wrath of the law for entering the country illegally without documents and will be deported.

Meanwhile, when the same happened to a tourist in America who did likewise into Canada, the Canadian officials told her politely and lightheadedly that she's now in Canadian territory and she should please turn back which she did
