This is Oluwatoyin Olajide; she is the second-most powerful person in Air Peace after Allen Onyema, who is the Chairman of Air Peace.
She runs and is in charge of the daily day-to-day activities of Air Peace as COO of the airline, and then reports to the owner and chairman of the airline, Allen Onyema.
She holds a First Class Honours degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Lagos, and she is the only female COO of a Nigerian airline at the moment.
When Airpeace was still a small airline in 2014, she joined as the head of safety, and her boss promoted her to the CEO/COO position in the same year.
She has been in charge of the airline's double-digit growth and has scaled Air Peace from where she met it as a small airline to the biggest airline in West Africa today.
Toyin does not speak the same language as her boss, but it does not matter.
What matters is that she is competent, merits the job she is doing, and qualified; picking a lady who does not speak the same language as him to run his business is who Allen Onyema is.
A quintessential businessman who is a detribalized Nigerian in every sense of the word
His wife is even an Igala woman from Kogi State, and he married her in the 90's, when inter-tribal marriage was not this cool.
Toyin actually came up with the Isiagu attire because Air Peace is not an Igbo airline, and her boss endorsed the idea.
This is why I don't understand the fuss.
Air Peace is a Nigerian airline, and Isiagu is a representation and embodiment of our culture and a representation of who we are to the outside world.
Before Air Peace started flying to London, Arik and Medview had done the same, but they no longer do the same today.
For me, understanding the banana peel that made Arik fail is more important to Toyin-led Air Peace than discussing Isiagu.
Toyin is doing an incredible job as a corporate Amazon who inspires our daughters that it is possible to be a mother and still succeed in a male-dominated industry on her own terms and due to her sheer brilliance.
And this is why the work she is doing is important for our culture.
Standstrong: I'm being seriously abuse at my current place of work by my boss.
I work in a hotel, one day in, one day out.
I started working there October last year, and I received the October salary ending of November after so much deductions that took almost 40% of what supposed to the salary. I received November salary middle of December (same thing) and since then, no payment again. We are in February and I have needs for the money.
Just in case he had forgotten, I earlier on reminded him of December salary and he didn't say a thing.
Due to my exposure in the hotel, over time, I'm experiencing some negative changes on my health.
At the close of work, I have no where else to sleep than to prepare a place at the open bar and that is where I sleep.
Cool air and mosquitoes deal with me to no small measure. As a result, I have been sick of constant malaria/typhoid and apparently, cold.
The cold part is evident at the constant chest pain and difficulty in breathing I have and sometimes I'm almost down completely due to it. I can't even carry myself to do what I'm supposed to do due to serious chest pains.
With all the symptoms of bad health, I need to visit hospital for care. So last week, knowing he was about to travel, I went to remind him of my salary so I can visit hospital. Since I know he's someone with anger issue, first, I pleaded he shouldn't be mad at me for approaching him concerning the matter. So he pretended to be calm but the moment I mentioned my salary, he went mad and emptied the whole glass of beer he was drinking on me, not minding the white shirt I was putting on.
Not just doing that, he stood up violently as though he wanted to slap me (have done that before) and that was when I shifted away from the place, with my whole body in mess.
The following day, he travelled. I thought he was going to pay me (even pay off) before traveling but he didn't.
With all the abuse and more going on in the place, I want to stop the work even though I have nothing else at hand now.
Some people are saying I should stop the work forthwith and "treat his f"up", but I don't understand what that means and I'm not ready for anything violence or will lead to someone else.
I just want to get my 2 months+ salary immediately so I can go to the hospital and check my health. I know how I am feeling inside me and life is only one. He can keep his job with abuse.
Na poverty and unemployment cause am.
How much is even the salary? Upon all the suffering in the place?
Please what is the best thing for me to do now?
Note: "treating his fk'up" is no option at all.
FOR ME SHA, I WILL LEAVE THE JOB AND I WILL GET MY MONEY TEN FOLDS ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. NO ONE HAS MONOPOLY OVER VIOLENCE. PERSON NO GO POUR ME BEER WAKA GO FREE, EXCEPT SAY I NO SABI THE PERSON SHA
Jessewizzy: This is not good. Israel has been waiting for an opportunity like to unleash mayhem on Palestinians . Why’s the United States actively participating in this while they looked away when Russia invaded Ukraine. They just deployed a strike force consisting of an aircraft carrier, 5 warships and 2 destroyers. Now Iran has lowered mic because the big boys have come to play. Israel is currently committing war crimes in Gaza. They are obliterating the city with airstrikes using biological weapons and other dangerous bombs. The United Nations should act immediately.
It’s also a war crime when one invade a city and starts shooting civilians in way of having a greater count. White phosphorus may not be good but bullets aren’t either
thenewschro12: The Imo State governorship election of November 11th is like a war for the survival and recovery of our State. In such wars, you do not go into it, half-heartedly, you go into it with all you have.
Imo has been ruled by an unelected individual for the past three years.
That’s not how we see it here. Rochas okorocha, Emeka ihedioha and Hope Uzo Dimma are all same pack of cards. But surprisingly, the so called tribunal governor has been working far more than what Rochas did in Eight years.
Savagery101: These are his exacts words and I quote:
"BRGIE @BiafraRGIE BREAKING They are discussing how to approach Simon Ekpa with offer of billions of Naira to stop Biafra. The President is ready to empty the federation account for Simon Ekpa to stop.
lhordspy: Bakhmut went down, just like Mariupol city. The hardest and brutal way possible, so bloody that it only exist in horror movies.
Zelensky, aided by the western media propaganda were covering up the daily loses there just like Mariupol. They never admitted to the ongoing slaughter of the Ukranian forces daily. Instead they covered it up for cheap chestbeating in the media. They kept sending the soldiers to their death.
Bllions of dollar worth of military equipment, aid, assistance from US, UK and other war-mongers ,flushed down the drain. Even the medicore overhyped Patrotiic-missile system couldn't save anyone. No wonder US backed-Ta!wan President stated it clearly yesterday, that they will never go to war with Ch!na no matter what. Everybody is finally seeing the reality in Ukraine. If US succeed in pushing anyone to war with its neighbour. They are on their own.
Another fascinating thing is that Zelensky is currently on world tour presently, from Arab nation to G7 Nations; begging for more weapons. More billions of dollar to waste, more lives of innocent soldiers to sacrifice just to please his puppeteer.
This isnt just a win for Russia. It is a win for world peace.
Austineva: God bless Russia God bless Isreal God bless Biafra Republic Government in Exile (BRGIE) God bless Maazi Nnamdi Kanu God bless Maazi Simon Ekpa God bless all lovers of Freedom. We Biafrans must exit d zoo this year(2023) it's a must and there is absolutely nothing anybody can do abt it

okoliobinna84: As I'm making this report, the crowd outside the stadium is 10x greater than those already in the stadium
That’s a fat lie. I live at IHECHIOWA street just behind the stadium. Most of the crowds was taken from the 305 wards and 1m was doled out to each ward. So stop lying and sending out rubbish infos here
pedrilo: My elder broder for raping my gf in 2007 and now that I'm married to anoda woman, he visits my home frequently when I'm out of town leaving my wife and 2 year old baby alone at home. I called him to always call b4 coming and stop visiting my home when I'm not in town. I have to protect my family cos once beaten twice shy. Did I take a wrong step?
Not just that call, take him to the village elders to tell him to stop coming to your house when you are not around. Because he will sure do it again, and nothing will happen. Are you even sure he doesn’t have that in his mind already?
DAVE5: Me no get time for nonsense, I don cut off plenty close pal and I wish I can cut off from the idiot I’m married to, she pack load say she dey go, for my mind I was like hey God, my dream is about to come through only for my mumsie to dey call me dey beg, wtf, go nah didirin, didirin no gree go, didirin no gree make marriage sweet, what a useless didirin
Ogbuefi2020: Second Niger bridge was started by Obasanjo, all designs and geotechnical testing were done by Obasanjo. GEJ started actual construction
Fat lie. Yaradua was the one that initiated it and not obasanjo, GEJ stopped it, but buhari continued and completed it. Point one major stuff done by GEJ in the south East and south south region?

THIS NON NIGERIAN SHOULD HANDS OFF NIGERIAN AFFAIRS
When He was facing social boycott, there was a Meccan friend who secretly supplied the Muslims with food.
When He was pelted with stones in Taif, He had no where to go, on coming back to Mecca, He first had to ask for asylum, a non-Muslim Meccan tribal leader took Him in and told the anti Muhammad faction, he would rather have his whole tribe, his sons be killed in defending Muhammad, rather than let any one harm Muhammad.
Muhammad did not convert the entire Arabian peninsula, by making enemies. He did it by making friends.
Looking carefully the life of Muhammad, and His contemporaries, you will find a distinct pattern. The ones who opposed Muhammad were:
Tribal leaders Wealthy merchants and slave owners The families who served the pagan Kaba (Mecca) Name one open enemy of Muhammad who does not fall into any one of the above categories.
The general population (small tribes, white collar people, slaves) openly or secretly welcomed Muhammad. Why? because He preached humanity and human rights. They were not interested, in monotheism because they were familiar with the concept of GOD and called onto Allah (Elohim/Elahi), after all the Arab and the Israelite are all offshoots of Abraham the prophets.
The general population was being crushed (economically) out of existence, because of elite, holding all the power and not exercising justice. The rich got richer and the poor were being enslaved. Thus the preaching of Muhammad; equality of all mankind, and being answerable to all deeds in afterlife was a hope. This hope was an upsetting factor for the rich, who foresaw a revolution at hand.
We can see this, when the tribal leader came to Muhammad’s Uncle the Father of Ali and proposed several terms
We can share power with Muhammad 50/50 One day we will worship in kaba His style, the other day we will do it like our forefathers did We offer Him the title of king of all the Meccan tribes We offer Him the daughters (who ever he picks) as wives We offer Him part of the riches (festival earnings) we have from the kaba all Muhammad has to do is to stop preaching Now tell me, does it look like any poor person, or any common man, could have made this proposition. Does this look like a complaint from the common man. No, exactly not, this is the representation of the elite of the society, who fear the growing popularity of a no-body (Muhammad was an orphan with no wealth, raised by his uncle, who had moderate wealth).
To this the response from Muhammad was “By Allah, in whose hand is the life of Muhammad, they can offer me all they want, they can put the sun on my right hand, and the moon on my left, but I will not turn away from the responsibility ordained on me”
As always in politics and revolutions, you make some enemies, you are only successful, if you have made more true friends, than true enemies.
nony43: In the whole of the Nigerian military, Nigerian Army and Airforce are the most useless. Nigerian Navy is doing a great job, we hardly hear of pirate attacks, if the Army and Airforce are working like the navy we won’t be hearing of herdsmen and bandits wiping out villages.
That name Ezeagwu is funny lol. Like king of madness
I disagree with you. The navy is busy running crude business with militants and government and cashing out. That’s why there is silence in that sector
