If you don't recognize the third picture, it's Henry Ford being called to Congress during an audit of his business.

The US system is working the way the US system works. While those in Nigeria are confused and believe this is a DSS/EFCC style 'hunt', the US is very careful about who has money, and how they're spending it in the country, and everyone operating at the billion dollar level is at constant battle with the Congress, Senate, and Internal Revenue Service.

Most businesses in the US opt to keep the powers off their back by funding the campaigns of various politicians, buying ads with major media houses, and funneling earnings overseas or into charity.

This is why Bill Gates is in Africa all the time trying to give you vaccines lol. I hope you're open to learning something new.

Do not forget that Jaja of Opobo was detroned, arrested, exiled, and poisoned by the British, for trying to buy British boats.

“Onyema setup various innocent sounding multi-million dollar asset purchases which were nothing more than alleged fronts for his scam,” said acting Special Agent in Charge Robert Hammer, who oversees HSI operations in Georgia and Alabama.

According to U.S. Attorney Pak, the indictment, and other information presented in court: Onyema, a Nigerian citizen and businessman, is the founder and Chairman of several organizations that purport to promote peace across Nigeria, including the Foundation for Ethnic Harmony, International Center for Non-Violence and Peace Development, and All-Time Peace Media Communications Limited.

Beginning in 2010, Onyema began travelling frequently to Atlanta, where he opened several personal and business bank accounts. Between 2010 and 2018, over $44.9 million was allegedly transferred into his Atlanta-based accounts from foreign sources.

Onyema is also the CEO and Chairman of Nigerian airline Air Peace, which he founded in 2013. In years following the founding of Air Peace, he traveled to the United States and purchased multiple airplanes for the airline. However, over $3 million of the funds used to purchase the aircraft allegedly came from bank accounts for Foundation for Ethnic Harmony, International Center for Non-Violence and Peace Development, All-Time Peace Media Communications Limited, and Every Child Limited.

Beginning in approximately May 2016, Onyema, together with Eghagha, allegedly used a series of export letters of credit to cause banks to transfer more than $20 million into Atlanta-based bank accounts controlled by Onyema. The letters of credit were purportedly to fund the purchase of five separate Boeing 737 passenger planes by Air Peace. The letters were supported by documents such as purchase agreements, bills of sale, and appraisals proving that Air Peace was purchasing the aircraft from Springfield Aviation Company LLC, a business registered in Georgia.

However, the supporting documents were fake — Springfield Aviation Company LLC, which is owned by Onyema and managed by a person with no connection to the aviation business, never owned the aircraft, and the company that allegedly drafted the appraisals did not exist. Eghagha allegedly participated in this scheme as well, directing the Springfield Aviation manager to sign and send false documents to banks and even using the manager’s identity to further the fraud. After Onyema received the money in the United States, he allegedly laundered over $16 million of the proceeds of the fraud by transferring it to other accounts.

Members of the public are reminded that the indictment only contains charges. The defendants are presumed innocent of the charges and it will be the government’s burden to prove the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt at trial.

SalamRushdie:
Nonsense !!! The US govt is not after Onyema because he made large purchases , infact they were aware from the onset that he had brought 20 million dollars into an American bank to buy an aircraft because he submitted a copy of his LC to them, the problem is that instead of using the money to buy the plane he now disbursed it it to various other account and that was were he breached their anti money laundering laws ...

Sirjamo:
Mr Onyema thought he could sell a dummy to the Americans by pretending to want to buy some aircrafts, but in reality, the money was meant to be diverted to his associates. He moved the money to America legally, and went ahead to distribute it illegally.

That man should hire more security guard to protect him properly, his associates might want to get rid of him before he rats them out to the FBI!!!

My opinion

Whether it's politicians, or businessmen, the ignorance we have of the US system while also wanting to participate in business with the US is dangerous. The United States is a very litigious, harsh country and ignorance of the law does not excuse a person in court. If you're going to engage in business with a country, know the laws, culture and mentality on the ground.

I do believe race and origin (Africa) played a role because almost everyone in the United States does not believe there are wealthy people in Africa. They don't believe it, and they don't want to believe it. So, while all large transactions are flagged in the US, ones from African or Black hands are particularly flagged.

The US has a long, difficult history with racism and when engaging with Americans, Nigerians can no longer be comfortable with fairy tale assumptions that you're dealing with someone that doesn't have a potentially malicious attitude towards you simply for being black and an Africa. We may even add Nigerian as Americans are not learning that Africa has different countries.

Nigerians enter the world assuming all evil exists in Africa and all good comes from non-Africans. Because of this we are ill-equip, mentally, to do business with anyone outside of Africa and we're constantly caught by surprise when they show malice or ill intent. I don't know if there was bad intent in the Onyema situation. As a fact, I do know that this is regular protocol. But I can safely assume that Onyema thought Americans would be happy to see him spend money in their country, as most naive Nigerians world.


Word of advice. The world is a world in competition. You cannot operate at a global level, assuming that the only people that don't want you to do well are the people in your village.

EVER WONDERED Y, NIGERIA REFINERIES ARE NON-OPERATIONAL?

ONCE THIS BUHARI GENERATION ARE GONE, ALOT OF THINGS ARE GOING WITH THEM.

JUST LIKE THE CHINESE, WE WILL MAKE SUCH WE PLUG ALL THE HOLES IN OUR ECONOMY.

I haven't seen logic in this your postulation
THE WHITE MAN HAVE RESERVED CERTAIN AREAS OF OUR ECONOMY FOR THEMSELVES TO RETRIEVE THEIR DOLLARS.


SOMETHING DEY CANNOT TRY WITH THE CHINESE.

AVIATION TRANSPORTATION IS ONE OF THOSE AREAS.

UNFORTUNATELY FOR THEM, AIR PEACE HAVE BEEN A SUCCESS STORY.

EVEN GOING TO FLY NIGERIANS FROM SOUTH AFRICA WITH PRIDE.

THIS IS WAT BLACKS ARE NOT SUPPOSE TO DO.

BUT GOD WILL PUNISH THE WHITE MAN.

OruExpress:
You are very right. The way they see it, someone that owns an airline can move goods and weapons over boarders and thus has real power. You can also fly over zones they have blocked off for surveillance due to their illegal activity. Boats and airplanes are equalizers

What they will do next is pressure the Nigerian Federal Government to destroy Air Peace internally. In 3 years someone, on this board will ask 'why doesn't nigeria have an airline', and blame it on 'black brain' and 'bad government'.

This is why we study history...though most of Nigeria has chosen not to.

I'll make it short.

CEO Allen Onyema (Air Peace) was flagged because in the United States, you don't make large purchases without forewarning authorities. The US economy and regulatory system is designed to flag and investigate anyone who makes a large single purchase, especially if it's not purchased with credit by the US creditor. Their reasoning is that

1. Large purchases can destabilize the economy and add an element of unpredictability to commercial markets. If Boeing makes 1 billion dollars from you 1 year, and doesn't make that 1 billion the next year, uninformed shareholder will panic and think the company is declining. Shareholders are interested in measured, incremental growth, and if a purchase is too large and done without warning, it will cause panic. You are also interrupting the companies planning and projections. While every business wants to make money, a corporation is more concerned with long term survival and controlling it's resources than gain. The wrong type of gain will hurt your ability to borrow. It's important to remember that before large purchases are made between corporations, they usually give each other months, or a year forewarning, and notify banks + authorities.

2. In the US, the only people that make large purchases without credit or lawyers, are criminals. This is what the US regulatory agencies believe. If you spend more than $10,000 without borrowing, the Internal Revenue Services will be notified. They will then inquire into your earnings, your spending habits, and your source of income. If these things don't match up with the ability to make a $10,000 purchase, you will be questioned and audited. During the audit, you will have to prove how you were able to spend that type of money in one go. This applies to any and everyone. Anyone that's able to spend more then $10,000 at once almost always hires lawyers and Financial Advisers certified by an accredited board. This 'financial team' answers audits and fights authorities and investigations while you spend you money as you wish.

If you look at every major company in the US, they have entire offices and buildings dedicated to staffing lawyers and auditors because they're under investigation 24/7. Even small businesses (business that make under $1 million USD annually) have advisors and lawyers dedicated to making it possible for them to make necessary large purposes.


What is ideal in the US system is if you put all of your cash in their banks and borrow from those banks when you need money, against the amount you have. This is the #1 way to keep auditors, the IRS, and various investigative departments away from you because you're no longer a threat to the economy, and there's a paper trail on your spending.



Below, I have a risk of 'IRS Red Flags'. These are the things that the US Federal Government look out for, and when seen, will investigate with the proper authorities. Sometimes these investigations involve more than one agency and this can include the Department of Revenue, Department of Justice, and Department of Commerce.
