The CEO of Air Peace, Allen Onyema, has been charged with bank fraud and money laundering in the United States

Onyema was charged for moving more than $20million from Nigeria through United States bank accounts in a scheme involving false documents based on the purchase of airlines.

The Attorney’s office, Department of Justice, North District of Georgia confirmed this in a press release on Friday, November 22, 2019.

In the press release, it noted that

“Onyeka allegedly leveraged his status as a prominent business leader and airline executive while using falsified documents to commit fraud.”

“Onyema sets up various innocent sounding multi-million dollar asset purchases which were nothing more than alleged fronts for his scam”

This news came as a rude shock to Nigerians knowing how the CEO of Air Peace, Allen Onyema, came to the rescue of Nigerians in South Africa after the Xenophobic attacks.

He volunteered planes to bring Nigerians who were willing to leave South Africa home. This gesture earned him a lot of accolades at home and abroad.

Allen Onyema is the Chairman of several organisations which promote peace across Nigeria, including Foundation for Ethnic Harmony, International Centre for Non-Violence and Peace Development and All-Time Peace Media Communications.

Mr Onyema is only indicted and charged. He is presumed innocent until the US government can prove its case beyond reasonable doubt.
