The CEO of Air Peace, Mr. Allen Onyema, has declared that he is not interested in politics.
Onyema insisted that he is a businessman
and does not have any political ambition, as he denounced any report
that indicated otherwise.
He reiterated that his humanitarian
gestures stemmed from his desire to give back to the society as his own
contribution to humanity, noting that such acts of kindness should not
be misinterpreted as preparing himself for any political office.
Onyema made this known yesterday while
reacting to an online post by a group known as United People of Nigeria
Initiative endorsing him for Nigeria’s presidency in 2023.
The Air Peace chairman, who said the
call was made in bad taste, rejected the endorsement and those behind
it, and urged them to deist from such campaign in the future.
In a statement signed by him, Onyema
said: “My attention has been drawn to an online post by a group that
goes by the name United People of Nigeria Initiative endorsing me
for Nigeria’s presidency in 2023. One Sir Wealthson Chukwudi was
exposed in the post as the president of the group.
“I wish to state clearly that this man, United People of Nigeria Initiative (UPNI) and its promoters are not known to me directly or remotely, and
whatever they are saying has not come from me and will never come from
me. I am a businessman not a politician.
“My purpose is to impact humanity, and I
do not have to be president first before I doing what has become part
of my essence. This is my nature. My motivations are different.
“I call on the public to completely
ignore this group and any other group or person/s that may come up with
such message and mischief about me in the future. I personally feel very
offended by it.
“I am very suspicious of the motive behind this unsolicited publication. Once again, I am not interested in partisan politics.”
