I Feel Bad For All Air Peace Employees, Major Job Loss On The Horizon. by Atouke: 3:27pm On Nov 23, 2019
With the seizure of about $14million dollars belonging to the company, ordering of parts for the airline maintenance, payment for insurance, payment of foreign personnel and other sundry charges will be hampered.
Aviation is heavily dollar dependent, if you lose access to your dollar account it becomes very difficult to operate.

Even if mr Onyema is eventually cleared of the charges after the case undergoes trial, which in American courts can take months if not years, but in the short term, the company will find it very difficult to operate with the seizure and freezing of his company US account.

This will hurt Air peace operations, the largest airline operator in Nigeria, and west Africa.
The repercussions will be enormous, over 3000 direct employees, several pilots, engineers and other professionals about to become unemployed because of avoidable mistakes.

If properly handled the airline should stay afloat and govt must make sure because today Airpeace handles over 50 percent of local traffic

Not FBI but DEA.

What's a rumor? Do you even know the meaning of the word?
If airpeace account is frozen how will they operate a dollar dependent business?

I doubt this Buhari govt. Will help. Look what they are doing with Arik and Aero which the Amcon took over, under Amcon Arik went from being a major international airline with US, UK etc routes to becoming a domestic airline.

Signing a deal is different from paying for the aircraft.

When you sign for an aircraft its like signing an MOU. money may not be involved initially, it just mean you have placed an order for the aircraft. You can also cancel that order or transfer it or modify it.

It's not about the amount of money seized, when the US Governments freeze your account, it means the treasury department will locate and freeze every account related to your business until the govt. Clears you of the crime for which your account was frozen.

So until Mr onyema is cleared of all criminal charges, it will be very difficult for his company to transact any business in the USA.
And as you know, Aviation is a dollar dependent business.

So except you are willing to live in denial of the effect of the frozen US account on the operation of the airline, The reality is that this case will affect Air peace Operations.
