How I made my fortune to start Air Peace — Onyema

When the news broke over the weekend that Allen Onyema had been indicted in the United States for multi-million dollar fraud, a question that echoed amongst Nigerians was how he moved from relative obscurity to become one of the biggest players in Nigeria's aviation sector in just about half a decade.

Some commentators said the indictment buttressed their suspicion that Mr Onyema might be a fraudster like many Nigerian businessmen with unexplained wealth; while others rehashed old claims that he has been fronting for unscrupulous politicians who cornered public funds and invested the same through him.

Mr Onyema established Air Peace Limited in 2013, and by the end of 2018, it had gained the largest share in Nigeria's domestic air travel, according to the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA)......READ MORE>>>

Posted: 25 Nov 2019 07:55 AM PST

Controversial journalist Kemi Olunloyo has yet again taken to her Instagram account to call out BBNaija reality star, Tacha.

In her new post on Instagram, Kemi stated that Ciroc made a wrong PR decision to partner with Tacha who was disqualified from the BBNaija reality show.


Kemi post reads:

SUNDAY THOUGHTS

Mercy was afterall the rightful winner of #bbnaija2019, there should not be a need to compete in endorsement deals or what not. Tacha was not even evicted but DISQUALIFIED. If I ran the marketing department @cirocvodka I would never have them both in the paid partnership. It constitutes a PR disaster. Good luck to Tacha on her endeavours. I will NOT leave her alone. I'm a Journalist and will report about anything of interest I need to. As for the over 50 years she said I couldn't achieve as much as her at 23yo, at your age my salary was $70,000 a year as a 22yo Pharmacist. You are living my past Tacha. Today I'm retired with three First class degrees, 30 Pharmacy, 23 PR 25 Journalism and still have firm breasts. Kill your pride and you can change that disqualification into a QUALIFICATION.
Congrats @official_mercyeke

Mr Eazi calls out Headies for not giving him his ‘Next rated’ award car gift

Posted: 25 Nov 2019 06:39 AM PST

Nigerian Singer, Mr Eazi has called out organizers of the headies awards for refusing to give him the car he won as the winner of the 'Next Rated' on headies in 2016.

Mr Eazi's career in the year 2016 was really excellent that he was crowned by the Headies Awards as the Next Rated Artist for 2016. The prestigious honor however has now turned to a scandal with the singer's new claim.

This is almost unbelievable but since it's coming from the horse's mouth, there's no doubt that truly, the car was not presented to him.

However, it is indeed confusing that after Mr Eazi bagged the Next Rated award in 2016, news and media houses reported 10 months after his win, that he has received his car, there was even a video posted on HipTv's youtube page to confirm that he received the car.

Now, it's 4years later and the singer has accused them of not fulfilling their promise stating that they didn't present him the car ever since then.

He revealed this while replying to a tweet where HIP TV shared a photo of the singer with his girlfriend, Temi Otedola and tagged it couple goals.

Mr Eazi quoted the tweet with caption; Instead make u gimme my car u dey here dey tweet couple goals

Nigerian footballer Ogenyi Onazi has paid the sum of N1.4 million needed for his colleague Sani Emmanuel's surgery. The 2009 U17 World Cup Golden Ball winner has been battling with injury for years.

Help however came his way through international player Ogenyi Onazi who played alongside Sanni at the junior level.

Emmanuel, who was named the best player at the 2009 FIFA U17 World Cup has been suffering from Achilles tendonitis – which forced his early retirement from football.

However, it was his former Nigeria and Lazio teammate Onazi who offered to come to the rescue of the ex-Beitar Jerusalem striker.

He took to his Instagram page to acknowledge receipt of the payment

I got a call from the doctor that @onaziogenyi has paid 1.4m for my surgery and also transferred 50k for my ticket to Lagos..thank you very much brother May God continue to bless you..the surgery is scheduled for 2nd of December 2019.
