The apex Igbo socio-political
organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has reacted to the current travail of Allen
Onyema, Chairman of Air Peace.
Ohanaeze’s President General,
Chief Nnia Nwodo, who expressed worry over the business man’s indictment in the
United States, said he hoped Onyema gets Justice.
In a statement, Nwodo said: “We
are quite aware of his huge investments in the aviation sector that have
repositioned the sector for efficiency and at the same time provided employment
for the teeming unemployed Nigerians.
“We are also aware of his
unparalleled magnanimity that helped save the lives of many Nigerians at the
height of xenophobic attacks in South Africa.
“We are closely watching and
monitoring the event with consummate attention to see how it will pan out.
“We wish him well in his ordeal
and hope that he will get justice at the end of the day.”
But, reacting, Onyeama said all
money transferred to the US went through the CBN, adding that the allegations
were false and were in no way in line with his character as a person and as a
businessman.
