Justice for you. Its always the burden of the accuser to prove claims beyond unreasonable doubts. Now where are the Nigerians that have become so reactionary and happy to hear bad news. I expect the same energy to remain in play as events unfold. Sad people, No, sad stupeed people. People who's existence is hinged upon celebrating falsehood and fall of people they can never be in their leagues in life. That's why they never come out of their negative life cycles

We have been celebrating it my brother. I was shocked because I know it was false accusation, I know the man. Yes he was a contractor that did contacts for FG during the Niger Delta amnesty, but he was already successful before those contracts which positioned him to land those contracts.

You can't get such contracts as a pauper or a nobody.

That was how they accused NEST Oil some years back, and even alleged that it belonged to Goodluck.

I have friends who are below 40yrs now waxing strong in their business endeavor out of dedication and hardwork, in years to come when their/our businesses become global brands, they will be wondering how come whereas when we chose the hard route of shunning white collar jobs and government paid jobs to roll our sleeves and start digging the soil to build our own brand and company, they saw us as directionless and visionless youths wasting their time on business that is earning them peanuts, you will see them carrying their sexy looking office colleagues in their air conditioned cars and forming sophisticated and well learned as they look down on those doing business as peasants.


But when the struggle pays later in years to come, they start to sniff around looking for how and where they looted the big money from without knowing that a drop of water can fill the drum of a patient man.


Thanks for wishing Air Peace well, God will continue to bless you and every other Nigerian and foreigner that wishes AP well too, thank you sir

So you didn't realize EFCC took that step by seizing his passport so that he can't travel to USA to face any trial. If such step was not taken he would probably be compelled to travel to face trial.
Racoon:

Yet our own hypocritical anti-corruption lapdog of the APC govt-the EFCC have long began a demonization of this man in their trademark media propaganda trial by seizing Allen Onyema' international passport even before the US conclude it's own investigation.

Meanwhile his patroitism and sacrifice for motherland during the SA xenophobic attacks even when the present Nigerian government utterly failed in its dilomatic responsibility were quickly forgotten.

Gov.Ganduje have long been decleared free by the Kano High Court from his babanriga dollar bribe stuffing scandal simply because Maj.Gen. Buhari(Rtd) have long decleared that Gandollar is a "responsible man".

So also was Buhari's aide-Nasiru Danu that was caught in money laundering & Malta passport scandal was protected by elements of this regime.

While the young Kano woman that was allegedly framed up in the Drug trafficking scandal in Saudi Arabia was quickly spirited away with alacrity before she will face the hangman noose in that nation.Continue the selective justice.Karma never forgives or forgets.

All well meaning Igbos have been on the desk working towards this.


We can't continue to fold our hands and watch them destroy Igbo businesses that Igbos built from scratch through hardwork, dedication and focus.

Everywhere in the world, government contracts are shady and inflated. It is like that. Go and google how much US government spent on installing anti viruses in their systems, something my friend in US and even Russia said they could do at less than $20,000 but they spent $millions.

That's government contracts for you.

If Onyema made some money from executing contracts for Nigerian government, what is the big deal

What about the $billions Aliko Dangote have made through Nigerian government

Currently Buhari led Nigerian government has awarded contracts worth $millions to Dangote, example is Apapa-Oshodi-Ibadan expressway which Dangote inflated the price and FG converted the money to tax waiver for years for him and nobody is accusing Buhari or Dangote of looting Nigeria's money.

Their hatred and conspiracy against Igbos is one reason Igbos keep waxing strong everyday all over the world.

I am sure it was a Nigerian that petitioned US government or secretly tipped the US Attorney to investigate Allen Onyema, we are still on it anyway, we shall see angry

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.”

This is the problem! The money came from non profit account. For purchase of business aircraft. That itself is fraud according to US laws

Onyema should tell FBI all this, we don't need all this media defence.

nobody said he didnt buy planes, even the US did not accuse him of not buying planes. They should answer the charges in the Indictment and stop trying to be clever by half.

the charge is that he bought and Paid for planes using company A that he owns, then he apllied to CBN as if it was a fresh purchase saying Air peace wants to buy planes (he already owns the planes having already bought the planes using company A) he then inflated the price of the planes to CBN via Air peace inorder to get more forex at official rate. In order to get a letter of credit, which is how international CBN payments are effected, a valuation company has to say the planes are indeed worth that amount. He then used another company B he owns to act as a valuation firm and falsely declare the planes to be worth more than the true value he paid using company A. As a result of which a US bank then paid his company A on credit pending payment from CBN. That is where the fraud that concerns the US comes in because he has caused a us bank to make payment on credit based on false documents. The charge is obtaining credit by deception, falsifying documents and money laundering because the excess money he got from the us bank was not used for the purpose for which is was meant.

nobody said he didnt buy planes!!

The details are in the report.

The only snag here is that funds came from an NGO.

Funds for NGOs are usually donated because they are for humanitarian purposes and to divert those funds to a private business is what I think will be the problem.

Boeing must have verified the documents but are they supposed to verify where the funds came from. That should have been done by the IRS. Tax evasion or money laundery allegations can be weighty in the US depending on how it is handled.

I hope he comes out of this mess because Airpeace has been doing really well and has at least given Nigeria some sort of visibility in the skies.


Investing funds are never a crime... Mismanagement of funds is what is a crime.

If he grows fund to give back to society... That's the height humanitarianism.

How about Springfield aviation (owned by oyemma and managed by a person with no aviation experience) selling airplanes it does not have and all the forged letters and bill of sale. This people have no idea how serious this case is in the united states. Oyemma should take the new report to the United states and clear his name instead of this typical naija pattern of cover up.

This argument is lame. Read the indictment below according to the United states department of justice.


"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.

Allen Ifechukwu Athan Onyema, 56, of Lagos, Nigeria, and Ejiroghene Eghagha, 37, of Lagos, Nigeria, were indicted on November 19, 2019, on one count of conspiracy to commit bank fraud, three counts of bank fraud, one count of conspiracy to commit credit application fraud, and three counts of credit application fraud. Additionally, Onyema was charged with 27 counts of money laundering, and Eghagha was charged with one count of aggravated identity theft.

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."
