Allen Onyema, 56, the founder of Air Peace, has been charged with bank fraud and money laundering for moving more than $20 million from Nigeria through U.S bank accounts in a scheme involving false documents based on the purchase of airplanes.
Air Peace’s Chief of Administration and Finance, Ejiroghene Eghagha, 37, has also been charged with bank fraud and committing aggravated identity theft in connection with the scheme.
“Onyema allegedly leveraged his status as a prominent business leader and setup various innocent sounding multi-million dollar asset purchases which were nothing more than alleged fronts for his scam,” said acting Special Agent in Charge Robert Hammer.
According to U.S. Attorney Pak, the indictment, and other information presented in court: Beginning in 2010, Onyema began travelling frequently to Atlanta, where he opened several personal and business bank accounts.
Between 2010 and 2018, over $44.9 million was allegedly transferred into his Atlanta-based accounts from foreign sources. In years following the founding of Air Peace, he traveled to the United States and purchased multiple airplanes for the airline.
Beginning in approximately May 2016, Onyema, together with Eghagha, allegedly used a series of export letters of credit to cause banks to transfer more than $20 million into Atlanta-based bank accounts controlled by Onyema.
The letters of credit were purportedly to fund the purchase of five separate Boeing 737 passenger planes by Air Peace. However, the supporting documents were fake.
After Onyema received the money, he allegedly laundered over $16 million of the proceeds of the fraud by transferring it to other accounts.
Onyema and Eghagha were indicted on November 19, 2019, on one count of conspiracy to commit bank fraud, three counts of bank fraud, one count of conspiracy to commit credit application fraud, and three counts of credit application fraud.
Additionally, Onyema was charged with 27 counts of money laundering, and Eghagha was charged with one count of aggravated identity theft.”

American rapper, Kanye West has revealed that God has been calling him for years but he was distracted by the Devil.
The rapper made this known while speaking about his “spiritual awakening” alongside Joel Osteen, an American televangelist, during a performance in the pastor’s church.
He revealed that God was there for him at his lowest moments and that the devil stole the best producers, artists, designers but with Jesus at his back, things are going to change.
In his words, “I know that God has been calling me for a long time and the devil has been distracting me for a long time. When I was in my lowest points, God was there with me, sending me visions and inspiring me. I remember sitting in the hospital at UCLA after having a mental breakdown,” he said.
“I was drawing a church and writing ‘start a church in the middle of Calabasas’.Even after that I made the Life of Pablo album and said this is a gospel album. I didn’t know how to totally make a gospel album. Christians that were around were too beaten into submission by society to not profess the gospel to me because I was a superstar.
“But the only superstar is Jesus. All of that arrogance and confidence and cockiness that y’all seen me use before God is now using for him. Because every time I stand up, I feel that I’m standing up and drawing a line in the sand and saying I’m here in service to God and no weapons armed against me shall prosper.” “
It’s like the devil stole all the good producers, all the good musicians, all the good artists, all the good designers, all the good business people and said, ‘you gotta come over and work for me.’ And now the trend is going to change. Jesus has won the victory. Now the greatest artist God ever created is now working for him.”

Chioma lost it with some of her followers who had a thing or two to say, about how she’s raising her son with Davido, Ifeanyi.
Some moments ago, the new mom shared a video of herself bottle feeding her son while dancing to a new song on Davido’s latest album.
Reacting to this, some followers neglected her main point of sharing the video, and decided to dish words of advice to her, requesting that she quits bottle feeding her son, as it weakens the bond between mother and child.
This wouldn’t be the first time some of her followers would be advising her on how to take care of her son. Chioma however, told them point blank to leave her alone.
Controversial singer, Naira Marley has achieved the impossible by selling out a nearly 5,000 capacity arena in just 3 minutes.

Controversial journalist, Kemi Olunloyo has revealed the message, Natacha Akide a.k.a Tacha, sent to her with a fake Instagram account.
The message reads;
“All you couldn’t achieve for over 50years on Earth, Tacha has achieved it at just 23, so yes, you need to be mad. Ex convict you need therapy. I care about you Mrs ex convict that’s why I’m telling you. You are so jobless with no shame at all”.
Reacting to Tacha’s alleged message to her, Kemi Olunloyo wrote her an open letter, which reads;
“Tacha sent me this with a FAKE ACCOUNT. Her location was turned on so I was able by to track her SIM. Same way Instagram tracked the newstip that sent me to prison from Iyabo’s NGO phone by an estranged PA.
Remember IG is a phone app?. Tacha has BLOCKED ME on Instagram and Twitter on orders of her manager @teebillz323. I’m really crying ?my eyes out now that I can’t comment on her post.?? The fact remains that Industry people are waiting for her to FAIL woefully with Tunji.
I never wish bad luck on anyone but sources inside Akide’s camp said they did not like how I was skooling her up and down about drunk driving, endorsement versus partnership advert yesterday. Tunji is not enlightened on these things and it’s making her look bad.
I don’t manage people but I’m a terrific Publicist with a US/CDN reputation. I have worked alongside record labels and management for big Celebrities. Tacha, look at what I said about bread girl Jumoke in 2014 and what happened to her management after, even her marriage. She had to leave and get a new team. Know how you are being represented.
You are not making money, you should be! People around you are making YOUR money. Why haven’t I seen you on a single TV appearance or MSM??? Managers are not Publicists. I have my own clients and one thing you need to know is that you need good media relations. You are packed full of ideas and more that opening your front door in a nightgown to receive a liquor brand is not the end of the world.
Look how long it took Tunji to unravel your partnership with Ciroc. Look at Mercy’s video produced by Elo in a bar scene. Alcohol delivered to your door in a nightie versus Classy Mercy walking into a bar. I love you both. Only interested in taking you both International. Nigerian Women can take over the world. Your media rounds should have started the moment you were Disqualified.
I’m not trying to bring Tunji down as I have given you both useful PR tips worth $2M even priceless. Go ask Naira Marley’s team on how you they got FREE PR tips from me. See him everywhere now. Finally clear your TOXIC fans and tell them love speaks love leads.”
Celebrity stylist, Toyin Lawani has jokingly revealed that former BBNaija housemate, Omashola is the reason her boyfriend broke up with her.

Read her post below ;
“Been so long since I aired my thoughts on social issues cos I’m busy building my empire but you BBrotherNaija fans really need to stop tripping and putting so much pressure on your favourite housemates.
You guys are causing more harm than good, stop putting them against each other, the show is over let them focus on building their lives, this type of constant competition causes depression, just quit already, You can support your favourite housemate outside the house without fighting and insulting yourselves or other housemates, get your own lives on and leave them to fight this new phase, we are all tired.
The industry is hard as it is, they are not yet even in the industry, all the noise does not bring success, it doesn;t help anyone. Ask the other housemates, some of them had to start from scratch, let people focus and do what they need to do to really succeed.”

Cardi B dominated at the Grammy Awards last year, taking home the prize for Best Rap Album in controversial fashion. Without dropping an album this year, the superstar rapper is still hoping for a prize at the 2020 ceremony.
In the running for Best Rap Performance with “Clout,” a song from her husband Offset, Cardi has a chance at becoming a back-to-back Grammy winner, adding some new hardware to her home.
Currently away from her man, the Bronx native commented on his recent video upload to let him know just how much she wants him back home, using her trademark raunch to drive the point home.
Offset just copped himself a brand new luxury whip to celebrate the nomination and Cardi B wants to give him another treat as her own congratulatory gift. “I miss you babe,” wrote the superstar before truly saying what she wants. “I want some Grammy nominated d*ck.”
Is anybody surprised that this jumped back to sex? It seems that whenever Cardi B pops up in the comments, she’s always lusting over her husband. They clearly have tons of chemistry, even on social media, and you just know that when they reunite in person, it’s going to be a good time.
TACHA HAS CONFIRMED SHE HAS A PAID PARTNERSHIP WITH CIROC. MY COMMENT ON HER PAGE. SHE EDITED HER INITIAL POST I CALLED A POSSIBLE PR STUNT.
When you see Paid partnership with… above a post in feed or in a story, it means that the person who shared it has a commercial relationship with the business partner that’s mentioned, and that they were compensated in some way for the post. Tacha you have a paid partnership with @ciroc, you are losing money, views, exposure.
Start using your @instagramforbusiness Branded content tags!!!!! OMG you are wasting time O!! @teebillz323 get these things active.
Brand content tagging will let this picture be seen in the 317M @instagram FEED! Brand content is different from ads you see on Instagram. She can collect MORE MONEY from Ciroc and move their brand to the top and hers also. If it’s a paid partnership they should both do a paid partnership brand content tagged post. They both win. This is only on verified pages.
Many Nigerians verified on Instagram don’t even use it���. Use your energy wisely. These Titans abusing me are not Educated people who will bring her down. Brand this young lady first. I told Tiannah this too during my birthday. A brand content tagging with her let people as far as Hollywood see my shoot. A star over there can call her and fly her to them just like that. Take the opportunity. It’s not everyday I give N1M PR and SM tips. My next branded content will be with @officialblessingceo. Tacha use the Branded Content tag unless it’s not a real partnership which I doubt is audio. We Nigerians sometimes don’t know our FULL POTENTIAL. #FreeTip .

Once your children become adults, the relationship becomes a choice and it takes work to maintain. You cannot treat your adult offspring like children. If you have detached the humanity from your children and view them only as your property, you will have dire consequences.”, she tweeted.
