Air Peace has just taken delivery of it's 8th plane.

As part of efforts to boost domestic and regional operations, we just took delivery of our 8th ERJ-145 Jet on Saturday, October 10, 2020. This is reflective of our determination to interconnect various cities across Nigeria and beyond.

Dangote, Adenuga weren't indicted for fraud by the United State department of Justice.

https://www.justice.gov/usao-ndga/pr/ceo-nigerian-airline-indicted-bank-fraud-and-money-laundering

as you can see, There is already an arrest warrant
https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/364774-exclusive-u-s-court-issues-warrant-of-arrest-for-air-peace-boss-allen-onyeama.html

tell Allen Onyeama to travel to U.S.A or Canada.

The Niger Delta Amnesty program money was diverted by Kingsley Kuku, the then Minister of Niger Delta affairs.
Allen is only fronting for Kingsley/GEJ family, it's clear Air peace doesn't belong to him.


lest I forget, tell Allison Madueke to return the 20billion USD she stole under Okonjo Iweala's watch.

what is your take on Allen/Kingsley/GEJ diverting the funds meant for the people of Niger Deltan ?

don't you think Allen should be jailed for at least 20 years? the people of ND are drinking unhygienic water, or perhaps let's say they always wait for rain to fall before they could get clean water.

but Allen is living a flamboyant life with their money, this is wrong.

The accusation is that cash from his NGO was used to make business purchases... Based on American laws, if giulty, then that's unlawful (and I suspect the Americans have an ulterior motive here but that is a topic for another day)... But my understanding is that these are issues of ethics not of generational heist like those of Tinubu or dangotes new refinery which is getting massive central bank help without the press mentioning that... There is nowhere that he was accused of stealing funds. You are the one imposing that myth in your desperate attempt to destroy another igbo business. But why worry your self over what you can't control? Even if you guys succeed in taking one onyeama down, another will rise.. From whence he came from, many mighty men abound...What you can take from a man is that which he is holding in his hands, NOT that which runs in his blood...

ulterior motive? I strongly doubt, Air peace is not a threat to American owned Airlines, infact Air peace isn't the biggest in Nigeria (I stand to be corrected).
he was caught in a money laundering fraud, and it's obvious America was trying to Protect her financial system, hence the Case.
we have to respect America's decision to prosecute him, we need a society free of fraud and other forms of corruption.

and saying maybe we/Yorubas had a hand in this case is laughable, as a Yoruba man, we don't beat chest, we are humble people, I would be straight forward here ; do you think the Yoruba nation can influence a country like USA, the greatest country on Earth? that's ridiculous.

let USA do their work, don't involve Yorubas here, it's not plausible to say we can influence a country a USA.

Northern governors were once invited to America where they were given guidelines or how to hold the country down for their western handlers whose only motive was to steal oil... Tinubu had his drug case but was allowed to "flee" to Nigeria were he is now a "big politician" influencing elections in ways that favour western interests....

What's your point? He did contracts for the Niger Delta commission just like most contractors from all over Nigeria.. Some used the proceeds to buy private jets, marry a platoon of wives , then started an epidemic of hajj visits, from upper, lower, middle to taller hajj every month. He invested his. Why the fixation on his assets while hiding those of Tinubu, jimoh balogun, dangote etc especially when it has not been proven that he looted..If you want an investigation, it's ok, but it has to be total and inclusive... I just informed you that the dangote refinery that is going on is getting subventions from the government. You avoided that. Why the fixation on Onyeamas business?

how can the proceed from a contract be that much?

he has been charged already,

Oh, I missed this one...
I'm amongst the many Nigerians who fervently believe that the Hausa fulani are majorly responsible for the malaise bedeviling Nigerian today... It's not tribalism, it's a statement of facts.. Since 1966, you guys have been in charge. Both as military or civilian heads. Even when you were not incharge, you basically appointed who will take over(Shonekan, Obasanjo). You set the tone of politics. Yoou disqualified or imprisoned politicians not aligned to your ideology.. Such powers came with the 'wins' of 1970... The dispair that is Nigeria today, evidently is the grand result/product of your maladministration, together with your comrade in arms from the SW. You can't be at the top, dictating events and controlling resources so massively and then turn around to share the blame of failures... It doesn't make sense. It doesn't work that way..

I don't count people's money... He was into business before..., So? Let's have a thorough investigations in all these! Ok? Including on how Buhari is awarding and reawarding oil Wells and gas fields as we speak. A general investigation. My impression is that iif such is done without fear or favour, some of the people who you defend will be in jail for the rest of their lives..

Dangote is a business man, I doubt if it's acceptable to just be investigating people like that.

Allen was caught, and if you have any implicative material that could expose Dangote's fraudulent accumulation of wealth, blow the whistle.

firstly am neither Hausa nor Fulani, I'm Yoruba though from Kwara.

while it's understandable that Hausa/fulani are domineering, it's wrong to be blaming the all the time.

after all, you Igbos have always been their friend even before the messy event of January 15, 1966, the event that would always hunt Igbos.. and after that you didn't stop being Hausa fulani puppet.

you voted for Hausas Fulani against a fellow Southerner 3-4 times whilst the Yorubas only do that once, and that's 2015.

Azikiwe aligned with Balewa twice, against a fellow Southerner (Awolowo)

Ekwueme /Igbos voted for Shagari against a fellow Southerner twice.

in 1993, Igbos voted for Bashir Tofa instead of MKO Abia.

infact a certain Daniel Kalu organized a 2 million March protest in support of Abacha govt.

but you guys are quick to label the Yoruba as the slave. who is the slave? with the above analysis?
Nigeria didn't start in 2015.

Azikiwe with his selfishness put you guys in the union called Nigeria..

KARMA, suddenly the Pioneer of One Nigeria are the ones clamouring for break up now, ridiculous.

you can't always be blaming the Fulanis for everything, it's a sign of weakness.

I will try to be elaborate..

To start with, it's jejune to expect a coalition between Zik and Awo because it was Awo that stampeded Zik out of Western Nigerias politics with the "cross carpeting" episode. That was the first in modern African politics and nearly rendered Zik ineffective in the politics of the first republic, pushing him to upstage Eyo Ita as the eastern premier.., leading to the Genesis of igbo squabbles with her minority neighbors that echos even today.... Again, after the general elections of 1964, Zik as the president refused vehemently to summon the the prime minister to form a government because of the violence/irregularities in the western region which culminated in Awolowos imprisonment! Facts!

2)In the second republic, Zik also contested under NPP. As an Igbo, even if he won, You lot would never have handed over to him, so it was basically a Choice between Awolowo and shagari. No sane igbo would have gone for Awolowo after his failed attempt to empty igboland of it's humanity during the war.. So with Shagari choosing a very erudite igbo as his running mate, it was obvious he was going to make inroads..

3)) In 1993, igbos also voted for abiola inspite of his uncanny vituperations about how he doesn't need the igbos. You guys are the ones always insisting that igbos only voted for tofa. Moreover, the National electoral commission that went ahead and declared abiolas numbers in most states against the militarys orders was headed by an ebullient igbo.. You guys always gloss over that but will mention athur Nzeribe and his ABN, forgetting that the secretary of ABN, who actually took the case to court for nullification was one Abimbola Davis! That name doest sound igbo to me..

4) Jonathan is not igbo! He is from bayelsa. You guys foisted an igbo identity on him just to summon enough base reactions from your traditional quarters againt his presidency! So don't make it look like you denied the igbos some, by "voting" him out. He did nothing special for the igbos apart from not antogonising them as a president. And the igbos stood by him basically because he is a minority and it was evidently clear that the "Messiah," you guys were propping up was no improvement on Jonathan... History has vindicated the just..

Daniel Kanu? Am I supposed to answer for the actions of a petty political hireling?

why should Azikiwe be allowed in the Western house? what happened to his eastern region?
In a bid to actualize his "igbo domination"

here is the article he wrote on his Western African pilot newspaper in 1949 ;

"IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THE GOD OF AFRICA HAS CREATED THE IGBO NATION TO LEAD THE CHILDREN OUT FROK BONDAGE OF AGES"

also a member of central legislative council, CHARLES ONYEAMA has this to say.

"IGBO DOMINATION OF NIGERIA IS A MATTER OF TIME"

kudos to Awolowo for not allowing the domination to start from the Western region, albeit they tried to dominate Western region by installing Igbos as vice Chancellor in Unibadan and Unilag despite the fact there are tens of hundreds of qualified Westerners.

can you allow a FULANi Muslim from Katsina to be the governor of Enugu state today? (even though we ain't in stone age anymore)
the excuse you guys will make is that, he will islamize Enugu, he's a terrorist, he's not educated etcetera.

but you wanted Awolowo to allow someone whose plan was to dominate the whole of Nigeria in Western region.

after the defeat, he couldn't swallow his pride, instead of forming the govt with Awolowo, he chooses to be a ceremonial president to his Fulani master, Balewa.

it was clear that the domination plan wasn't forthcoming, Hence the Coup.
the Igbo coup of 1966, due to inability to control Balewa and actualize the "domination" plan.

only a fool would support Biafra after being jailed , Northerners never care about Awolowo, it was Azikiwe that masterminded the prosecution of Awolowo, big up to Yakubu Gowon for doing the needful after Ironsi failed to do it.
and you expect him to support Biafra? that's nonsense.



Shagari/Awolowo, we careless about this, that's why you don't see us shouting Igbos are betrayals, Igbos are backstabbers.


1993, Abiola only won in Anambra, lost in three other States, we still didn't care about that, we never called you betrayals, Backstabbers, Betrayal of southern unity e.t.c


can you now stop calling us betrayals for voting Buhari/Osinbajo?

we counted our looses and moved on after Awolowo, Abiola humiliation, you don't see us Calling you betrayal of Southern unity.

now stop calling us betrayals, the reasons you gave for not voting Awolowo and Abiola justified why we didn't vote for Goodluck.
after all Goodluck isn't Igbo, why una dey carry the matter for head sef ?

the same Goodluck that won in 2011 with the support of Yorubas? he won in 5 SW states except Osun state.
2015 we felt/ (known to everybody) marginalized us and voted him out. period.
