Allen Onyema: Dirty International Aero Politics Behind Failed Attempt by Nigerian Airlines

The difference between Air Peace and other unsuccessful Nigerian Airlines that plied the Lagos to London route is that they failed to have a TCO audit and they suffered for it

[@olousy159]

when you people write, consider history like past 40 years + when necessary. Yoruba people have run the biggest airlines in Nigeria in the past including Abiola's Concord, and Bellew Airlines - you have to deal with discriminatory Europeans to do those businesses. Regarding manufacturing, Yorubas and Hausas brought in most of the biggest manufacturing companies in the beginning, but inferior cheap products brought in by Igbos started collapse of those manufacturing companies before even effects of electricity set in as population grew to overload electricity capacity.

[@mrdave1413]

​@@olousy159Noted. So what stops the Hausas and Yoruba to continue bringing the so called manufacturing companies? A lot of people still want to buy the authentic products.

[@olousy159]

@@mrdave1413 In developing economies, a company needs majority to be able to afford the quality products. My sister saw a 1500 Naira tyre in the 1990s and she bought imported by Igbo man but the tyre did not last for 18 months before the thread was done. It would have taken a quality tyre 5 years for the thread to be done considering the light usage. Yorubas were set up for big time quality manufacturing even before independence in 1960. Tough - because others decided to systemically brought Yorubas down. They actually used to say it that they are bringing Yorubas down before Year 2000s. Young people need to learn from the past

[@Bizz2k]

I agree with what you're saying, Mr Onyema. Airlines are 'cartels'. There is a barrier to entry by the big airlines. They are gatekeepers. Mr Virgin 'Richard Branson' took British Airways to court because they tried to frustrate Virgin Airlines in the late80s/90s Look at how Sir Alfred Laker ( Laker Airways) was also frustrated because he was competing against the now defunct BCal. He had to sue the UK govt. because they supported Bcal to work against him as his fare were far cheaper than Bcal. Our Nigerian govt needs to step in or else another story would evolve like Freddie Laker. Sir Richard went all the way to court and won against BA also suppirted by the UK govt. These were case studies while I studied at my UK universities some decades ago. I also lived it as it was always on BBC News, ITV and in the print press media back in the day. These two men were relentless and Sir Richard went all the way hence, Virgin is still thriving in the skies. He started off being cheaper than BA and the now defunct British Caledonian. Unfortunately, Virgin has levelled up with BA. I travelled by Nigerian Virgin Airways through Gatwick in 2008 to Nigeria and we were frustrated at the airport both ways. A flight that was scheduled to leave Gatwick by 9 AM left 11.30pm. We were checked into a hotel, then asked to leave. It was my whole family with a mother in a wheelchair. On coming back, I had the same experience at MMA. We were checked into a hotel in Nigeria. The movements and sit-around that we were put through on the day made me cry. Now that airline is defunct. Virgin would see off a rival and BA. Air peace should NOT allow the same circumstance of previous airlines on this same lucrative route. The gatekeepers are in action to frustrate another Nigerian airline out of business. I hope the onwer reads this and takes action with our Nigerian govt. They can not allow this airline to become another 'graveyard' case study. I know our Nigerian people across the world would support Air Peace. We are populous but, the UK policies to deter the Airline is a battle that needs to be headed by our NigerianAviation Dept, Air Peace Management, Nigerian Press and The people of Nigeria. Read up on any articles on Laker Airways - Sir Alfred Laker. He's deceased now. And articles of Sir Richard Branson v BA. It's in the archives.

Rubbish system! Am so proud of Mr Onyeman n every right think Nigeria out there (Captain Musa Nuru). New! better!! Nigeria is Possible

[@wgbiziness14]

I like the positive thinking of this patriotic gentleman; the way he began his response to Dr Ruben Abatti question. What a remarkable man! He is an inspiration to Nigerians. Many more will follow on his foot steps to put our dear country Nigeria where it belong in the World. Thanks for flying the Nigerian flag, to make us proud. You are indeed an inspiration. Those enemies within are not God and, they will all fail with their wicked and unpatriotic intent.

With all these struggles to showcase Nigeria 🇳🇬 brand to the world, with all the FREE rescue missions across the globe to bring home stranded Nigerians, and with the crashing of the London route ticket from 15 million naira to a mere 4 million naira, some wicked Nigerians are angry with Allen Onyema for using ISIAGU ATTIRE for his Air Peace crew. What a country!😢

Shame to those unpatroitic Nigeria civil servants who are so heartless. Government should look into sabotage activities of civil servants in the aviation induatry at this time. God bless Allen Onyema for his patroitism and rescilience.

[@octagonmixltd]

Mr. Onyema God bless you real good. I align with your sense of doing business and I tap into you. Thank you. For Nigeria to be great, Nigerians must change from grassroots upwards. We need a leadership that can show Nigerians sense of direction, we lack direction and that's why wickedness is plenty amongst us toward our fellow Nigerians. Mr. Onyema please don't listen to the noise of the pessimists in Nigeria.

I couldn't agree more with Mr. Allen Onyema, the CEO of Air Peace, on his frustrations and dreams for nigeria. What a true patriotic citizen who selflessly serves his country, upholds its values, and works towards its betterment is indeed a true hero.. Mr. Allen Onyema has demonstrated courage, dedication, and a sense of responsibility, inspiring others to do the same. His actions may not always be grand or attention-seeking, but they are driven by a genuine love for nigerian and a desire to make a positive impact. Patriotic citizens are the backbone of a nation, and their quiet heroism is something to be celebrated and emulated. Without any doubt, Mr. Allen Onyema is an honorable man and a true nigeria. May God continue to bless him.

[@akanbijoel6168]

Allen is a true patriot. Even when he could bring business fare to 10m he decided to bring it to where (4m) it belonged. Unlike the so called people on the economic team of Mr president, e.g. Aliko, who stood to continue to exploit Nigerians on the price of cement, even when he had every window to bring it down. These are people that the country's system has made. Thumbs up, Allen!

@ 25:00 I was kept waiting for > 2 hr with other non USA citizens at JFK airport while they were calling only USA citizens and Green Card holders to clear immigration first. I couldn’t believe what I witnessed. It’s only in Africa that immigration staff are looking out for foreigners to clear quickly. We must start to say “Nigeria/Africa and Nigerians/Africans first!”
