Onyeama represents so much good for the existence of mankind. You can see commitment and a holistic understanding, approach to what he does. He will go far!
This is one of the richest and educative interviews granted by Arise TV in recent times. God bless Mr Onyema for breaking all the challenges down in very simple terms for an aviation "illiterate" like me.
Why is it so difficult for government to make his airline a national carrier and let him get the juicy routes? This man is patriotic and loves the country dearly. Government should support him wholeheartedly
Why not try to listen well, he even said this administration (Minister of Aviation) strongly Supported him. Some of you just like to always use this Igbo,Igbo card on everything.
I don't know where this man get his confidence and belief from all the way ?. He has so much passion for his country and he is such a FEARLESS leader. Congrats Air Peace
Great news, fly Naira, keep Naira and save Naira. You are one patriotic nigerian i have seen, from Evacuation flight free of charge in RSA and Sudan at your own cost. Keep your face straight and never mind the ethnic profiling you face in your soil. God bless you
He should not mind the ethnic profiling in his so called country😅 And he’s patriotic? Who are those ethnic profiling him ? You are either mischievous or a criminal 😮
I trust my Igbo people by the time he works on that Gatwick route he will make it so lucrative that those who thought they were sharp will start putting eye in that route
Dr Alen Onyema. You make us proud with your accomplishments. A man with an absolute sense and commitment to the principals of Nationalism. A true Igbo man.
This interview is really a mirror for us all.. Government, Private Sector and Citizenry need to understand their parts in the working of a civil society
Great news. Gatwick south airport is very good choice. I leave in the UK and in Surrey County which is between Heathrow and Gatwick airport. Transportation from Gatwick south airport to London and other parts of UK is very comfortable.
Dr Allen Onyema is very right and accurate. Nigerians do not have patience and understanding towards Nigerian airlines. Weather is a major cause of delays and cancellations. I use to work for Northwest Airlines in Minnesota and I know exactly what he is saying. What Nigerians do not do to foreign airlines, they try it with Nigerians airlines. Nigerians need to change their attitudes and mindset. Nigerians complain a lot due lack of knowledge on how airline industry operates. I really appreciate his efforts towards his country Nigeria. God bless him. 🙏🏿
There's no security of anything in Nigeria. Was it not in school that the young Chibok girls were all taken while just being kids in their own country? Was it not in this same Nigeria that a lot of people & their kids have been kidnapped, raped, & even killed in the presence of their husbands etc? Was it not in this same Nigeria were people beaten, shot at, & killed or maimed for life for voting their choices on election day? Democracy is not for Nigeria or Africa, Africa needs structure & discipline to rule them properly etc. Nigeria runs Dangote, Elumelu, & Otedola economy today & these men have monopolized every facet of Nigeria & taken out healthy competition that used to exist in Nigeria especially Dangote- The man who built a refinery with Nigeria's money but is unable to refine any oil from Nigeria- Another Dangote scam. Democracy gave them to us! For there to be healthy competition, there must be adequate security, infrastructures, & the rule of law & record keeping through technology not these paper record keeping that still exists in Nigeria where they manipulate anything to favor the highest bidder. Not only is Nigeria listed as a terrorist nation-home to Boko Haram in various websites in the Western World, but it will also continue to be a young country made for old men; the young continue to run away b/c old men in power thinks they are running a Monarchy among themselves & their family instead of democracy- a govt that works for the people! The name Nigeria is synonymous with corruption, lies, & chaos.
@@dicksonhaul4895 i don't realy know about others tribe ,if they don't patronize igbos conmerce then they start their own brand is never too much the population is massive,but in Edo state we do buy aba made and that what i grow up with,china made is not better .
As a Nigerian living in the Uk we should all stop using BA and Virgin Atlantic. I don’t know who the damn Brits even think they are. Enough is enough!!! Super proud of you sir!!!
Besides the arrogance , they have milked the absence of indigenous competition. Yes, there are Nigerians that would not fly air peace because colonial mentality would not allow us see road but don't worry he would pull traffic...just the thought of the disruption is sweeting my belle
I am 100% flying this airline in April... I am so happy, he should help us destroy the costly pain from BA and Virgin. Air Peace should do away from overlooking and if flights are canceled, they must be ready to put customers in hotels and not ruin with the poor 'Naija customer service approaches'
Hopefully somebody close to Mr. Onyema can advise him to look into flights to the Caribbean next. Maybe from Lagos to Atlanta (usa) with stops in Jamaica, Barbados, Trinidad, etc. and reverse from ATL to LOS with stops in Caribbean
And compete with a direct Lagos to Atlanta Delta route? Besides, I don't there's any demand for the Caribbean routes and vice versa. Let's remember that this is a for-profit business.
@@themark7948 there are many people looking for these routes. And especially with an Afrikan airline. Even if delta is better quality it is expensive. If air peace can reduce fairs it will compete and revenues can be used to provide better quality later.. I just don't want to be scared my plane will crash
@Kayceelem if your semantics is sound, you'd know that the word 'unnecessary' in the context you used is relative. What's unnecessary to you may be a priority to someone else. As a subtle, I just expressed my opinion, there is nothing you can do about. Like absolutely nothing.
@chukseriega7693 Well, you are entitled to your opinion, so there is no sense in trying to overturn it. It's yours enjoy it. But in my next life, I pray to be from the Igbo tribe. I leave you to your bigotry.
Allen Allen keep pushing until you get Heathrow the primary airport in London. British and Virgin Air are enjoying our 2 primary airports of Abuja and Lagos. Never give up. Keep pushing Kudos
Arise remain the outstanding news outlet. Give Dr. Allen more time. This is the very informative. This might the best way to inform the President, Minister and legislative about these issues. Air peace should repeat similar effort in any schengen country. No price tag to this 33 minutes of your time.
Most respected Nigerian, even though some of us continue to disappoint you, you have continued to fight for Nigerians and Nigeria. As an entrepreneur it will be a great privilege to be mentored by you in the future. Respects sir!
I have never been more captivated by any other Arise guest. Even the presenters all paid rapt attention and forgot to end the interview. Kudos Sir Onyema. I love your brevity and tenacity! Please put Toronto in your future plans.
Dr Onyeama, keep fighting for Nigeria. It is hard but keep fighting. We are everywhere in the world and they know as proud people we will run away from patronizing them so they will make it hard for Airpeace.
In all frankness, i submit to all that we still have leaders in this great and mighty country called NIGERIA. MY hope was rekindled as i listened to dr. Oyeama spoke with a heart 💗 of patriotism and optimism of the highest order. I am fully persuaded that Nigeria will find her root some day very soon.
I listened attentively to you Sir. I believe you are making valid point because i can feel the pain in your voice. Thank you for all you've done. You have made me believe in your company and I strongly believe I will fly Airpeace from London to Nigeria soon.
Congratulations to CEO Dr onyema of Air peace, we in diaspora especially in United Kingdom are overwhelmed with this great news by Breaking that challenges in British hypocrisy towards Nigerians.we in diaspora will support you at all cost even if air peace clearance to fly through any of the British local airport ,we'll locate airport peace .You and members of your great team has inspire us Nigerians. Our leaders should do more to stiff other European countries air line especially uk 🇬🇧 l also thank president Tinibu and minister for aviation for making it a reality. Well done air peace 👏
The british are an amazing bunch. they love our natural resources, labour, our money spent on their universities and airlines, however they are ever so ready to treat nigerians and africans with contempt. So far so good for the 'common wealth' . Thank you Mr Onyema for your patriotism.
On one hand, I was thinking this kind of man should be made Aviation minister. On the other hand I'm thinking if he gets there, either the corrupt cabals frustrate his effort or he gets corrupted himself. The truth is the President needs to show the way/path he wants his administration to follow and also be ready to give full backing to his ministers. Our problem is leadership problem. Once we get it right from the top, to deal with the followers becomes easy.
Gatwick is a convenient underrated location. If Air Peace provide the best customer service training, highest safety standards, optimum aircraft maintenance, affordability and effective communication, we will excel. Most people go with foreign airlines based on a safe and effective track record. It takes time to build trust so let’s start with good intentions and transparency and we will be successful.
Mr.Allen Onyema,CEO,AIR PEACE,the almighty God will continue to bless and guard you in your life. Because, you are a man that's whats Nigeria to be on top.You are important for Nigeria and Nigerians at all levels
Now I understand better how airlines/ aviation works after many years of flying. Dr Onyema is very patriotic. Please men like this must be protected and supported fully. Men like these are the builders of top countries like UK, US, etc. He must be protected. I am feeling bad that Herbert Wigwe died untimely with many visions unfulfilled that will favour the whole of African youths. Please Minister of avaition and this govt must give him full support. Nothing bad with making Airpeace the national carrier. He is the largest airline with impressive capacity.
One of the best interviews that I've watched where a guest is intentional about putting the country first in excellence. Please when can they commence Abuja to London route? I'm going to always use Airpeace! Even if it is Birmingham to Portharcourt..
As Nigerians we need to rally round this move and support Air peace by flying with them when they start operations in London. This is a great move in the right direction. I fly Air Peace locally and would definitely be flying with them Internationally.
Well billion congratulations anyway the 1st time Entering Air peace from Abuja to benin city it was a nightmare a lady fainted at landing, it was scary but am praying it will work and please air peace fix air conditioner on your box within Nigeria it was scary for me that l have to call my friend to cancel my returning from benin city to Abuja but my friends husband begged me not to waste so huge money 😂😮and I decided to be peaceful but guess what my returning flight was air conditioned, and it was a peaceful journey to Abuja so please Boss kindly do more, and the air craft wasn't spacious atall, but their staffs in Abuja and benin were very helpful God bless you 🙏 Mr air peace l believe in Your vision Safety is very important
Ma'am your reply seems genuine but local flight planes aren't even meant to be big.. even the almighty America. Some planes you can't even sit properly.
You can see the difference betwen Dr Allen and Dangote. One makes the life of his ppl better to make a living, The other makes a wealth from the ruin of the people. Is it so difficult to Govern Nigeria ?
More blessing for the student subsidy and you're right about the discouragement flight cost caused. I love this success wholeheartedly. Greetings from buckinghamshire.
This man loves Nigeria - he talks the talk and walks the walk. This is what genuine concern looks like. He is eloquent about the multidimensional issues plaguing the country. The root cause of these issues are the ppl/citizens.
Well said sir, anytime I listen to this gentleman , am always highly impressed. We are architects of our own problems It’s not Tinubu , Thsnk you for highlighting that, you’re well educated and sound sir.
@@Adeniyi3884 how do I live to unlearn what I just learnt, and how do I live to unlearn that my Elder brother was stabbed on March 18 2023, he didn’t even have PVC, he was just passing, and they said “shebi we warned Omo Igbo not to come outside… the list is endless… I ask again tell me how?
This are the kind of people that should be classified as a national asset. FGN should do everything to promote him and his ideas , as a matter of fact peace airline should be given our national carrier status. He is a patriot to the core. GOD bless you mr Onyeama you are a true patriot may your stars never dim.
This whole discussion shows that Nigeria needs patriotic leaders with Capacity, integrity, and foresight. Let the best of the best be encouraged to lead Nigeria. Right now, Nigeria has people with no Capacity, patriotism, or integrity leading Nigeria, because the standard of leadership is based on tribalism, nepotism and religion. No progressive country could survive on such backward standards.
Nigerians let support this man, i expected all i heard from the interview, and those that live in 🇬🇧 in the days of arik know what the ...... can do to faustrate your business. You are clever and God fearing , may your business prosper and overall of them all SAFETY , ( no let them near your airline ooh they would be pained and can be used by the devil)
@@beonceeadababe1150 we would be happy if he does it for Germany 🇩🇪 route, last year I travelled with Turkish Airlines, that's what I always do or travelled with Air France 🇫🇷 If we can have Nigeria 🇳🇬 Airlines in Germany 🇩🇪 we would be so much happy
Dr. Allen, God bless you for this, I can testify to what you are saying! We are ready to support your laudable and pathrotic endeavour! Nigeria shall fly again!
Dr. Onyema has a large heart. However, I hope that since Adebayo Ogunlesi owns Gatwick airport, there could be some forms of support, considerations and cooperation between him both of them. Nigerian politicians needs to encourage a sincere growth of Nigerian entrepreneurs.
Wonderful presentation by the gorgeous Arise TV team and Dr Reuben Abati. Thanks also to Dr Onyeama for making all these aviation issues markedly clear even those who are not in that field can understand. It is really sad and amazing how our Nigerian government officials sell down their own local operators for the benefit of foreign airlines. There are so many ways that our local airline operators can benefit from the bonanza being exclusively enjoyed by the foreign airlines especially in our own territory. Afterall, the maxim "charity begins at home" have never been disproved.
May God bless this man. Nigerians, don't bother about tribe but support this man. Your tribe doesn't matter in this but see his airline as your own airline. His airline is representing Nigeria, our country. We need to support him because he is a Nigerian.
I just love this man. His interviews are like lectures. Very impressive business guy. He knows his stuff. Igbos are business gurus. Compliments to Keyamo for being active.
