Chairman of Air Peace Airline Mr.
Allen Onyema, accused of money laundering in the United States, has received massive support from Network of
Concerned Nigerians In Diaspora(NCND) and their Local counterparts Network of
Concerned Nigerians for Good Governance. The popular groups called on the
Federal Government to do all it can to ensure that the air peace boss is not unnecessarily
implicated. The calls were made in statements signed by the chairman Comrade
James Erebuoye and Secretary General Mr. Suleman Ahmed and released to our
reporters. The duo believed that Mr. Onyema has done a lot to raise the bar for
passengers travelling by air and also raised investors’ confidence in Nigeria. “Such
a man who is concerned with safety and health standards of travelers as well as
invest in the Nigerian Environment should not necessarily be victimized”,
stated Comrade James. “The Federal Government should do a thorough
investigation and ensure that this is not another case of
Pull-Him-Down-Syndrome”, he suggested. Comrade James noted that Air peace
Airline has made huge inroad into the Nigerian Aviation circles; ‘this is not
the time begin negative things like this”, he added. The Secretary-general, in
his own submission decried the high rate of attempts to drag down prominent
business achievers from a particular section of the country and urges restraint
from everyone concerned. “We should all support a viable causes and not just
look for loopholes”, he lamented, although he praised the Federal Government for
taking its time to study developments. He
also praised Mr. Allen Onyema for handling the matter with the utmost caution
it deserves. Recall that an arrest warrant had been issued by Russell Vineyard,
a magistrate at the Northern District Court of Georgia, United States.
