LIAT 2020 has released a statement clarifying recent speculation and misinformation concerning its ownership and organisational structure.
This clarification follows recent developments regarding Allen Onyema, the Chairman, CEO, and founder of Air Peace Nigeria.
Onyema is scrutinised for allegations of obstructing justice by purportedly submitting false documents to the government. This action was allegedly an effort to terminate an investigation that had previously led to bank fraud and money laundering charges against him.
LIAT 2020 has expressed its commitment to delivering clear and accurate information to its customers, partners, and stakeholders in response to these developments.
LIAT 2020 Limited is a joint venture between the Government of Antigua and Barbuda and Air Peace Caribbean Limited. GOAB holds 30% of the company, and APCL holds 70%. Both organisations are established in accordance with Antigua and Barbuda’s legal framework.
The organisation underscores that APCL operates independently from Air Peace Nigeria Ltd.
“LIAT stated that Mr Allen Onyema, the CEO of Air Peace Nigeria Ltd, does not hold any shares, directorship, or involvement in APCL or LIAT (2020) Ltd.”
The airline clarifies that the company’s ownership and operations remain unaffected by the erroneous speculations concerning Mr Onyema. It is essential to explain that Mr Onyema does not hold any ownership stake in LIAT (2020) Ltd, and any assertions to the contrary are entirely baseless as facts do not substantiate them.
