All airline in Nigeria are like that. I know you might dislike oshiomole cos he is a politician and in APC but those airlines own don too much.

If you are a regular flyer, you wld know what I am talking about. They postpone flight, they delay flight and sometimes even cancel flights with impunity without even caring about the passengers if they have appointments to catch with it if it's an emergency.

See, almost everybody is wicked and corrupt in this Nigeria. Imagine delaying people's flight that booked online only to now start selling the tickets to highest bidder
That's ibo for you

I honestly don't like this man but the truth must be said

Those that fly via airpeace regularly known Adam's is saying the truth

Similar thing happened to me last year while using same airplane, I got to the counter 6:03Am for a 6:45Am flight and was told they have closed the counter, meanwhile these people are still selling ticket for same flight, without arguing with them I decided to buy the next available business class ticket for almost 300,000.

All these impunities happen in the country because, there is no control anywhere, no one to report anybody to, to bear the consequences of wrong doing, everyone does whatever he or she likes and no punishment
Re: My story With Air Peace – Adams Oshiomhole by 18wheeler: 8:52pm On Jun 11, 2025
That’s how maxair made me spend 395000 from Lagos to maiduguri last year, instead of 174000. Flight canceled without notice and I had to go. Only alternative was to take another flight to Abuja and then another to Borno, costing me 395k.
We take a lot of negatives in this country.

You see why it is not always good to just follow the lies these blogs spread until you hear the full story from both sides.
That air peace is becoming a problem. The staffs are just ruining what their chairman is trying to do. All this ticket racketeering is becoming something else and its not just in the airline industry, even in the rail sector.
The regulators should seriously look into this. Abysmal.

cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy

E don reach Oshiomhole turn to experience "Nigeria", now he has released a statement.

It was Wike's turn some days ago. The fearless general was calling on "God" to save him.

At the end, we are all human (flesh and blood).
What is wrong with Wike calling on God to save him?

Are you the owner of God?

The other time you people shared rumours that Wike has stroke and has been flown to France, you were all celebrating

Now everybody is abusing him because he was praying to God on airplane??

You should have consider your position in the country before brandishing such shameful act in the public pace why blocking the access point preventing others not to gain access in. Sorry to say this but you are not worthy to be called a distinguish senator of the federal Republic of Nigeria. It's a pity the country has become so bad to the extent that those assigned to make laws are the ones broken the laws.
Even with all he said, this is is what your brain could come up with?
See what hatred is doing to your mind.

You don't need to be a law student to have common sense. Air Peace is notorious for their bad behavior and poor customer service.

Most Nigerian airlines are crooks but Air peace is far worse in their criminal ways. Adams Oshiomole did the right thing by fighting for Nigerians.

Only IIGB0S are defending the crookish character of air peace
They know why they are defending him...

Air peace have such a bad reputation both home and abroad for such a young airline..
Re: My story With Air Peace – Adams Oshiomhole by bigtt76(f): 10:12pm On Jun 11, 2025
Very true. I remember Aero doing same back in the days when they sell those incredibly cheap tickets and when you get to the airport, they tell you flight don full. At a point I took to sleeping at the airport overnight in addition to checking in online, to beat this. 😂

In my opinion, the Senator's side of the story didn't add up. By the way, is he not the same man who denied ever saying that "once you join the APC, your sins are forgiven"? It is a shame that a Senator will turn himself to a tout, no matter the provocation. I hope the CCTV captured the entire episode.
Re: My story With Air Peace – Adams Oshiomhole by flokii: 10:28pm On Jun 11, 2025
Dear Senator Adams Oshiomole.. kindly use your good Office to push for fast trains to connect big cities like Lagos, Port Harcourt, Abuja and Kano, also the rehabilitation of our existing roads across the country to break the monopoly of price fixing by these local airline operators.
Those airline people have formed a kind of mafia to be extorting Nigerians. They are capitalizing on the insecurity in the country to fleece people (how are we sure they are not part of those sponsoring terrorism and kidnapping in Nigeria). It's sad that the mindset of an average Nigerian businessman is to extort and reap Nigerians off their hard earned money. This is why they are failing massively in Nigeria whereas their foreign counterparts are doing well.

It's a shame on the part of Air Peace to be reselling people's seats for higher prices while denying those who bought tickets due to urgent meeting, appointments or even emergency situations their rightful seat allocations.

He's not lying. I already knew something fishy was going on from their own story earlier in the morning, where they claimed he got there late at 6:10 a.m for a 6:30 a.m flight and that the flight had left.

Because, why would the flight leave ahead of schedule?
Haba! That's not what was claimed.

In simple terms, Air Peace is adamant that Osho Baba arrived too late to take part in the boarding process. This is not the same as saying the flight had already departed.

“Air Peace strongly condemns the unruly conduct of a prominent Nigerian politician who disrupted airport operations on the morning of Wednesday, June 11, 2025,” the statement said.

“The prominent individual in question arrived at Murtala Muhammed Airport Terminal 1 (Zulu Hall) at approximately 06:10 AM for Flight P47120 scheduled to depart Lagos for Abuja at 06:30 AM. In line with our standard on-time departure policy, the boarding process had closed, and the flight departed as scheduled.”

But then, even if the "prominent politician" arrived at 06:10 AM - having already checked-in online - he was still within the bounds set by the airline. cool

For our London Gatwick – Lagos route, “Check-in starts at 06:30 am. Check-in arrivals after 09:25 am will NOT be accepted”. “Once checked in, please ensure you arrive at the boarding gate no later than 09:55 am or risk being denied travel”.

Boarding on Domestic Flights closes 15 minutes before flight departure while boarding on Regional and International Flights closes 20 minutes before flight departure.

Re: My story With Air Peace – Adams Oshiomhole by mamdanju: 11:04pm On Jun 11, 2025
Senator, I'm so sorry to hear you experienced that, but I'm not surprised. A similar situation happened to my colleague and me at the Lagos domestic airport earlier this year. They closed the counter a full 20 minutes before our flight was scheduled to leave, and we were forced to pay extra to get on the next one. It's outrageous!

They were clearly looking for a bribe to let us through – they practically asked us for money to board the first plane, but I was too slow to catch on at first. This needs to be addressed. Well done, Senator, for bringing this to light.

Believe this man at your own peril. His antecedent tells more about him. Man is a confirmed trouble maker. The "Go and Die" man is a very troublesome short devil.

Oga those present said the opposite. They said that you even climbed on the luggage conveyor and stopped it. They also said that you have been having similar issues in time past with them.

The organisation should blacklist him. He shouldn't be using their airline.
Air peace should also tell Nigerians what really happened

Izzy bro, please read his submission again. This is not about being angry, but rather correcting the system. I've been there before, so I understand his story.
These airline ticketers are terrible. May be this act will checkmate them. May be.

Re: My story With Air Peace – Adams Oshiomhole by Kalulu44: 1:07am On Jun 12, 2025
My say here is, Adams Oshiomhole is well known from first as a Labour president to being a governor and now a senator. Even if some of the airpeace staffs don't know him I am very sure one or two will know him and then tell others, and he would've been given the recognition he deserves, which makes me doubt what he narrated above
Re: My story With Air Peace – Adams Oshiomhole by Blessed4sure: 2:33am On Jun 12, 2025
I do not support Oshiomole's reaction, but, truth be told, airlines in Nigeria have a long way to go in this regards. And not just Air Peace.

I was with a friend at the airport about 2 years ago. The airline (United Airlines) closed the gates about 90 minutes before the departure time, saying that the plane was full ('oversubscribed'), even though the passenger had checked in online as well.

We begged and begged, and even called their HQ abroad. The staff at the HQ said her seat is available and that we should approach the Nigerian staffs, but those ones said nothing could be done as the gates have been closed for the day.

She had to pay about $1000 extra to be rescheduled for another flight the next day. (It was an international flight).

What is the purpose of online check-in when you have to do the same at the airport?

Boy, to go far in life, you must master the rules of the game. Which means you approach events according to its demand. My point : what is required to curb madness is madness. Don't be gentle where you are to be aggressive irrespective of your position.

Adams Oshiomole might have anger issue but he's sure number one senator trying to change the corrupt system.

Have you heard his cry about contrast staff in the banking industry and private security services. It is mind blowing!
Same Oshiomole that answererd "who is complaining? When asked about the poverty level of Nigerians after Tinubu took over from Buhari or are we talking about a different Oshiomole?
Re: My story With Air Peace – Adams Oshiomhole by ogbiwa: 5:56am On Jun 12, 2025
I don't know what transpired with Oshiomole and airpeace as I wasn't there, but this I will boldly say: some Nigerian airlines are turning airline business to motorpark business. These guys look for the slightest excuse to resell your ticket on the spot to another highest bidder. I've arrived for a flight 20 mins prior to departure time and they refused me to board claiming boarding has closed, including people who checked in online. How can I be at the airport, the plane I'm supposed to board is at same airport with me for over 20 mins yet I can't board, for a local flight?
