You can all see how some Nigerians are helping the man explain his fraud. They are even insisting he didn't commit fraud....

Because it's their tribe man..

That's exactly what is wrong with this country...

Tribalism is corruption.

We need to kill tribalism

Almajiri1:

This is far deeper than you think. Once Air Peace is positioning to be in direct competition with any American interest, Trust dirty to be dug up on you.

True

LabDNA:
Too bad for him.

The worst time to do fraud is right now, once your name enters the internet for fraud. All your reputation built over the years is shattered.

For me, that's worse than going to jail.

Bros that one na lie ooo. Who reputation help. Going to jail deosnt even change anything
Shattered reputation can still be managed...go ask some naija politicians. Many of them are still enjoying their money with shattered name. Ask ibori

Almajiri1:

American businessmen and politicians commit far worse than you could ever imagine.

Even trump is a fraudulent MF.

Having a good personality does not make you a saint. I know a man who physically abuse his wife for 20 good years. All those years everybody in the community knows this man as the most gentle, kindest, most generous member of the community. Everybody loved him. Don't be fooled by the face people show you. Some people have PhD in pretense.

Well like I said I don't know him personally but have been inspired by his antecedents.

Domestic airlines have become infamous for the very high mortality rate, yet his airpeace continues to grow in leaps and bounds, and only few months ago he was specially recognized by the NA. ..

Well let's see how this case pans out.

*Sigh

YungMillionaire:


If its contracting then the company would actually export the planes to Nigeria. But its not contracting. It is fraud. Because the 20 million flowed from Nigeria to US but the planes were never sent to Nigeria.

That’s why I said earlier this investigation is too in a hurry. There is no proof he intends to scam banks of their credit. He plans to buy planes and he has bought many before so this time around they are bothered why he hasn’t bought. He got crdt and will pay back the credit based on his agreement with the Nigerian banks.

The us banks shud not be bothered about the immediate use of the funds. Planes or no planes cos he can decide to change his investment for any reason. It’s left for his creditor to object to it or find him trust/credit worthy.

Doesn’t the us cancel weapon deals already done for political and other reasons??

The us banks are not his creditors they shud mind their business a private investor can change his investment even with borrowed funds.

LordKO:


Your mental parochialism knows no bounds. The demand/request for his US address is metaphorical because I don't usually like to dialog with anyone who resides in 4 of the US states. An average dweller in any of the 4 states don't believe in infallibility of any US establishment, even when such happens almost every other day. His continual projection of DOJ as infallible is appalling to anyone in the know.

Now you can see why I said you and your ilk aren't discerning and extrapolative. You can now direct your further mentions to small-minded people like you.

Anybody you have an altercation with is small minded ...lmao

And you think you’re not small minded and deranged ? Continue...

Please stop na, this is what I do for a living and I just analysed the entire DoJ released document. He is charged with fraud and money laundering. You are emphasizing money laundering which was put at over $20 million between Nigeria and his non-existing US companies, NGOs. However, he orchestrated $20 million fraud received from US banks into his bank accounts, not transfer. His US manager is already talking, saying his name was fraudulently used to facilitate the fraud and he claimed he has no idea of the aviation industry. This is US DoJ, na wa o

Letter of credit have nothing to do with loan pls!!!

Almajiri1:

By the time they're through with Onyeama, There would be nothing left of Airpeace.

so that will make you happy?

realestniggah:
Why do I have a feeling patience Jonathan is behind this man company.

Same here. Seems he is acting as a front for mama peace. The 20million quickly disbursed into different account was probably used in buying different properties. What is it with Nigerian politicians stealing money only to send abroad?

Sagay212:

That's the point. He's not a politician (at least for now) who can steal money blindly and no one gives a hoot. He's a career businessman with international connections. Cooperate image of the airline is at stake

Some just want to make it look like it's just a case of money transfer from Nigeria. It's deeper than that. I actually like this guy and I sure hope he can beat the charges. There's bank fraud involved here. The Feds do make mistakes but not in a large case like this. When they come for you, they have done their homework very well and they will catch you by the balls. No escaping. Been through it and still standing. Mr Oyenma wil go through the painful process and will come out of it sooner or later. Chances that his businesses will survive this is slim to none. Unless the Nigerian govt decides to step in for National security reason as this is the only truly national airline for now. I sure hope the govt. will give this man all the support he can get without appearing as if they are supporting a criminal

Almajiri1:

is it by force to go to that useless country

SalamRushdie:
Nigerian Business men must learn to make these international transfers very transparent as any hanky panky usually get the American feds to start being supicious ... So they have been hiding under the guise of plane purchase to move looted money out of Nigeria .

Not to move but to buy planes using fake documents and fake companies

ProtectMyMoney:


Seems you missed the path where a fake US company packaged to be selling planes (Springfield Aviation) was set up to send fake papers to Nigerian banks to transfer 20m dollars .
**********

Now some of it seems to be coming together, i remember when Air Peace was publishing news paper articles, advertisng on TV that Air peace set to acquire Boeing 737 Airplanes. Seems it was all packaged to support the request for the Nigerian bank to send the USD20m to the fake company in US.

You are a typical Nigerian with something on your shoulder. The Spring Aviation Company, LLC is not a fake company. It is a legally operated company in USA. The USA said the company is managed by someone who has no knowledge of aviation. The question is must manager have aviation experience? Hunter Biden even rose to board of BURISMA with iota of experience in energy business. The man has a legitimate business and NGO. He initially sent the money to buy Boeing product and changed his mind to secure products by Bombardier of Canada. How did Onyema defraud USA banks when the money did not originate from USA banks?

edon21:
Americans are doing whatever they can to see that Nigeria doesn't survive since our relationship with China

One of the 48 laws of power never outshine your master. Even with his philanthropic gestures to the returnee animals from SA. Every wealth has a skeleton that only thorough investigation from pure hearts can unravel

Sorry but how is Air Peace positioning or positioned to directly compete with any American interest in the aviation sector? As airline operators, they do not have the clout to even compete with mid-sized airline operating companies in Africa, talk less of the USA. I think what you have just mentioned is false.

Now do not get me wrong, I am not exonerating the USA. Given their very checkered history, the US of A is capable of just about any and every underhanded deed you can imagine. But I struggle to see how this relates to that. It is very possible Mr Onyeama is guilty of the crimes he has been charged with and this is not connected to any sinister plot or motive. To a reasonable extent, the law enforcement agencies in the USA are seen as independent in the discharge of their duties and in their composition. Not saying they have not been found to sometimes play foul but I doubt in this man's case.

Most businessmen in Nigeria are actually guilty of what Mr Onyeama is accused of.

Una don start. Go and read the history of how Airpeace came to be and how the license was almost denied despite the fact it was during GEJs regime.

ODVanguard:




You will be shocked when you hear about how many more 'prominent' Nigerians hiding under various occupations are involved in this money laundering 'business' for some VIPs. From a very reliable source, heard the likes of toke makinwa, Linda ikeji, and many other celebs (most especially the 'very successful' ones) are involved, using blogging, oap, etc as fronts, una no even sabi wetin dey happen. If I begin mention names, kasala go burst.

In fairness to Linda Ikeji...she got into the blogging game around 2005/6...back when the interent space in Nigeria was very small, not many Nigerians even had links to the interent, talkless of home internet and 90% of browsing was done in cafes.

By the time home internet came around in 2008//9...Ikeji was in prime position to reap the benefits.

Sometimes the early bird does catch the worm.

Nothing surprises me again in this country.

mmsen:


Why would they when it is Nigerian politicians and civil servants who collect these bribes and then cover up the crimes of the American companies?

Exactly

franchasng:
You know nothing about all these things.


I am not a US resident neither am I a US citizen but I have a fully registered LLC in the US.


Secondly, google LC or Letter of Credit. It is not for obtaining loan at all.



US government problem with him is why forge the aviation certification and clearance certificates with a US registered LLC that doesn't deal on aviation or aeroplane sales or manufacture. How did you get the certificates and clearance documents you sent to the Nigerian bank that enabled them raise the LC to allow the trade and money transfer to happen


Why would you send money from an NGO bank account owned by you in a country on fraud watchlist to a US registered company bank account owned by same you


Those are his crimes not loan. No loan was given, just document forgery and fraudulent intent

An LC is a short term loan between banks. What do you call a letter of credit? Promise to pay at a future date and guarantee of availability of funds. Any fund not available immediately for settlement is a sort of loan.

As for a registered company, after registering as an alien, tell me how you intend to run the operations and receive revenue in the US without work visa or permanent residency?

That's not how it works buddy. If you submit an export letter of credit, both the importer and exporter must abide by the conditions. By submitting the letter of credit to US banks, Onyema was claiming that the planes had been delivered to Nigeria. This is FRAUD. In this case it appears the importer (Onyema) sent the money and the exporter (also Onyema) did not deliver the goods. So at least one of the two Onyemas committed fraud/money laundering.

Now let me explain to you what Onyema did again. Onyema laundered 20 million dollars from Nigeria into America by pretending to import airplanes from America. The money entered Onyema's US accounts but the planes were never delivered even though the LC claimed othewise.
