Xenophobia: Nigerians Hail Allen Onyema, Air Peace For Airlifting 187 Returnees by IamHeWrites: 10:34pm On Sep 12, 2019
Founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Air Peace Airlines, Allen Onyema, has been trending on Twitter since early Thursday, Igbere TV has observed.

This followed the successful evacuation of some Nigerians from South Africa, following the renewed xenophobic attacks in that country.

Igbere TV had reported that 187 Nigerians, who voluntarily indicated interest to return home, arrived Nigeria Wednesday night through the Lagos Airport.

They were airlifted by Air Peace at no cost, while the Airline company bears the entire bill burden for their flight, according to its Founder and CEO.

This development has caused many Nigerians to heap praises and prayers on Onyema, even as some pledged to make Air Peace their official flying company.

In an emotional video sighted by Igbere TV on Wednesday, the Air Peace CEO was also seen crying profusely as he received the 187 returnees from South Africa at the Lagos airport.

Nigerians have expressed satisfaction, hailing him for airlifting all those who indicated interest, not minding their ethnic group or religious belief.

Already, an observation on Air Peace official Twitter handle (@flyAirPeace), showed that the follower count of the company on the platform had tripled.

Here are some screenshots obtained by Igbere TV showing some of the reactions. See below...

Airpeace has proved itself to be patroitic and should be praised and rewarded for their good works.

Nigeria is one of the countries with most private jets, what are our pastors, business men, politicians doing with their private jets, shouldn't they be using it to help in bringing people from South Africa, the only use of their jets is for boasting.

Quite an expensive publicity stunt by Allen Onyema.

Very nice gesture though!


BTW, na watin pastors do una naaaaa?
We have suddenly shifted focus from attacking the real enemy of the state, our leaders & politicians to men of God & churches.


Una no dey fear God again abi?
No one on earth is qualified to judge any pastor and his ministry except God who has called him & anointed him for his work.

All the noise about pastors not releasing their private jets to airlift Nigerians in SA back home is pure nonsense.
How many of you Nigerians can afford to give people lifts in your car freely? Una no dey wind up cruise past people for road? Yeye!

Jesus fed the 5, 000 but na those wey attend him crusade him feed and it wasn't a daily affair.


Pastors are accountable to God but our politicians and leaders are accountable to us.

Stone your evil leaders and leave pastors alone, they are not our problems. Infact, they are already doing more than enough.

Nigeria my country, things fall apart!

My Uncle who had spent more than a decade for South Africa with nothing to show for it still refused, failed and/or neglected to utilize this great opportunity to return home at no cost.

Consequently our entire family have jointly offered him as a burnt offering to ndi South Africa to use the modafucker to appease their indolent gods

This xeno has taught me dat no nairalander or fellow nigerian hates each other
The real xenophobia is our corrupt leaders. The hidden 'south Africans' are the politicians who use ethnic divisions to champion ambitions
They kill us, we pay back by killing us
They steal from us, we pay back by stealing from us
They use us, we only pay back by using ourselves
We are twice the victim

Ifeanyi Ubah has been promoting this Airline both in and outside the National Assembly.

I strongly pray he be wary of such promoters and his likes.
