Peter Obi diverted state funds into his personal business Saber Miller. He does not see a difference between state and personal funds.

He built next cash and carry one year into his governship. Built the biggest mall in Abuja and Port-Harcourt. Does not change the fact he used $30 million of Anambra state funds into a venture he had an interest in.

The budget of the Amnesty was over N245 billion naira throughout Goodluck Jonathan regime.. Kingley Kuku fled to America when PDP lost the election. I went to school with his son Tobi. So how did he make his money ? He didn’t tell us that part . For a bank to lend money for airline business , you need to have secure assets .Banks won’t given money to a pauper or someone not already rich

Corruption is so prevalent in Nigeria, you don't understand the concept of conflict of interest.

What was his source capital? What is the difference between the source capital of Air Peace and Arik Airline? Can you say government funds had nothing do with it. Was Allen Onyeama a billionaire in dollars and able to secure loans loans before he became the major contractor of Amnesty funds. You live in the corrruption capital of the world, where every overnight billionaire source of wealth is known.

Do more research about Allen Onyema

Odili will also deny owning Arik Air and Tinubu will deny First Nation. I know the CEO of First Nation son and Kingley Kuku son. I went to school with them.
Allen Onyeama should explain to us where he got the billions to start an airline. You are dealing with an accountant that know what it is to make a profit after Direct Materials,Direct Labour,Manufacturing overhead and taxes to turn a profit.
He is yet to explain his source of billions in the corruption capital of the world. You can't just wake up one day and just start an airline.
