So how many Igbos have gone to court to prove Tinubu is a criminal before your entidebfribs start insinuating that he is ?!
Atouke:

In which court of law was that established? Remember an allegation is not a crime. It's just an allegation until proven in court.

I can wake up tomorrow an allege that you are the antichrist, that doesn't make it so until I go to court and prove my allegation, and a court of law agree with me.

He is a hustler, not a business man. The business men are all implicated in Panama papers. The hustlers do jjc level money laundering
Lol at hustlers, that word is hilarious to me, you see smugglers, criminals, looters, thieves, someone will smuggle items into Nigeria (both fake and genuine to cut corners and if what he smugglers kill or hurt people, he doesn't care because money must be made by all means ). fraudsters all claiming to be hustlers whereas they are criminals grin

.......indicted but not convicted.....I feel he should wait and see the trial through before taking such decision

Do you have any idea how long criminal trials can last in the US courts? Especially if it involves people with deep pockets like mr Onyema who can afford the best legal representation?

What do you think will happen to Air peace operations with frozen US banking accounts? While the trial last.

For instance if the trial last 2 years and he ends up being found innocent and his airline does not survive what will he gain.

In order to save the airlines image and allow it to run freely during the period that the fraud trial of the two individual will last in the US courts,
The best thing would be for the its chairman and CFO Allen onyema and Egahaga to step down from their roles in the company pending their clearance from court of all corrupt charges.

Mr onyema who is a patriotic Nigerian that has created many jobs for Nigerians and West African and loves his people should allow that love for country to drive him to resign and save the company reputation from fraud until he is cleared from the allegations which I hope he will be cleared.

In the meantime his wife is the Vice chairman of air peace, she can take over as chairman and another person can take over as CFO of the airline pending their clearance.
This is the standard practice worldwide. If this is done it will in the meantime save the airlines a lot of trouble as they can open fresh business account in the USA devoid of signatories of people facing financial fraud charges in the US courts.
This will enhance the operational efficiency of the airline.

Mr Onyema and Egahaga would now use the time away from the daily demands from the airline operations to focus squarely on the case against them.
By setting up a top US criminal defense team made of US lawyers, not the ones that am seeing making weak statements on Nigerian media.

This case might likely take a while for the trial to be concluded, so to save his company during this trial period, he should do the honorable thing by resigning as that will not be an admission of guilt but a strategic move to save Airpeace.

Once that is done the fraud case will now involve former Air Peace chairman and former CFO thereby creating the needed seperation for the Airline.


Air Peace contains money stolen from Nigeria's treasury during the Jonathan administration. The airline ought to be nationalised, Allen Onyema belongs in Kirikiri, along with his criminal associates.

I doubt the Nigerian goverment has the balls to do right by its citizens, since the ruling APC themselves are busy stealing hand-over-fist in Abuja, even as we speak. But I can assure you that Air Peace as an entity is dead, whether Onyema and his accountant step down or not. GEJ & his wife will definitely look for another business-proxy, this particular one is no more useful because the cover has been blown!

1. Bribe and do rankadede to some top apc politicians.
2. Let EFCC arrest him just the way the arrested mompha to protect him from interpol.

Efcc will help him kill the case easily..they are a criminal outlet like nurtw.

Welldone sir.Your deep rooted myopic hatred for anything Igbo keeps showing.How many times have you called for anyone of your incompetent brothers to resign for doing a poor job?How many times have YOU resigned for being a failure in everything you touch?

Oh so he should resign because of an indictment?Will that make your erection stronger?Especially now all that agbo you swallow is no longer working?Where was this energy when this man single handedly saved Nigerians in SA?I am not supporting any crime but i am disgusted with the stupidity and blindness in this country!We cant be one.There is too much hatred,especially for Igbo people
Rubbish poverty stricken and poverty enabling mentality plaguing these numbskulls.You are at the bottom barrel and you want everyone to be crawling along with you.Losers

They are sore losers, it's difficult for them to understand how Igbos keep flourishing under this Govt which they helped in bringing to power that has failed and brought untold hardship to many Yoruba households,
they have been carrying out smear campaigns against Igbos at every opportunity, Abike Dabiri will name names if Igbos are involved but will use numbers if Yorubas are involved in crimes abroad.

Every big business in Nigeria is involved in Round Tripping including Dangote if you listen to Emir Sanusi but they will only snitch on Igbos and not Otedola, Adenuga, Dangote etc

What do you guys think? Should the indicted individual resign?

Is air peace a public limited liability company? If no, then he own the business cos of cos he is the owner of majority equity in the business if he doesn't own it all. That being said, the choice to step aside is solely his. His board can only squeeze face except one bad guy wey dey over ambitious, else it's his choice only

For the purpose of argument and public engagement, Airline business is one of the few business that is absolutely difficult to operate without the cooperation of the USA and the US financial sector, mr onyema will doom his company if he fails to seperate himself immediately from the company to free it from his individual criminal charges.

I have read several reactions that the US or people's are using the US legal system to unfairly target mr onyema. My opinion is that that is highly unlikely,
1). US only comes after you if you are acting against the USA interest.
Mr Onyema is not competing against any US interest, his Airline is not competing in any route that any US airline is currently plying and non of his proposed international routes is in competition with any American airline. He wanted to fly Houston - Lagos, India- Lagos, China- Lagos, London- lagos and south America, none of this routes will compete with American interest hence the reason for my opinion.

2) Mr onyema has one thing going for him his airline uses 100% American made aircraft, he has Boeing and Embraer aircraft for those who don't know Embraer though a Brazilian company but, Boeing owns a substantial part of Embraer and collaborate with Embraer for designing a d development.
This is a major plus for mr onyema because being a customer of an American aircraft manufacturer he will have a lot of support in the US business community.
The reverse would have been the case if his airline was using Airbus aircraft.
For those who don't know Boeing is American number one export. The US government listen when Boeing speaks. Boeing's interest is American government interest.

3). Mr onyema is charged in the federal court in the state of Georgia, a plus for him is that the state of Georgia especially Atlanta has the most progressive and wealthiest blacks population in the US, hence a large population of black professionals in Georgia, hence mr onyema will have the cream of the crop lawyers to choose from. As opposed to being charged in a court in a state with few black people.

4). Mr onyema stand a good chance of winning this case, if they investigate the case since 2010, and only brought charges after 9yrs of investigations it means that the evidence against him is weak if not they would have move against him earlier.

5). America is a very litigious society, and that means this kind of allegations are common place in America, hence there is expertise on how to handle such cases successful, mr onyema should look for the best American lawyers for his case.
And invest his time away from his chairmanship position from his airline if he chooses to resign. to face this criminal case squarely.

6) mr onyema is a very wealthy man, that helps a lot in legal crisis as you can afford the best legal representation.

7). Even if mr onyema loses his case which is highly unlikely if he handles it properly. He will not likely go to jail, he will only be required to pay a fine which will be settled out of court.

cool. In my opinion Mr onyema has a favorable prognosis.
I have never seen such a dumb post in my life b4.....

onyema can't escape DoJ suit and if American sanctioned him,he will come back and face efcc for embezzling funds for MEND Amnesty during Jonathans era

Igbo tale telling, just like your claim Igbo were not the ones that initiated the first coup in Nigeria n they did not kill Tafawa Balewa n the premier of both the north m west region.

So in you lil bigoted Igbotic deluded mind you have no remembrance of when Dangote had monopoly to supply Nigeria with sugar ?


franchasng:
That was how Otedola went into exile too in Ghana when Yaradua was in power and EFCC was on his trail for debts running into billions....Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan came into power and saved him from going into extinction like Jimoh Ibrahim by waiving off his huge debts and told him to come back to Nigeria and continue his business....yet Yorubas hate Goodluck with passion.


One day, one brave, no-nonsense President will rise, and Dangote's dirty book will be widely opened, and the whole world will know how much of Nigerians' commonwealth he is using to answer billionaire and richest man in Africa without any ingenuity or meaningful invention aside importing cement, and from importing cement he suppressed every other big cement importers like Ibeto to become the richest man in Africa with investment in all fields of life, time will tell angry angry
