How British media made US money laundering case against the ‘Centerpoint’ of Prince Harry And Meghan visit to Nigeria
The British media led by Daily Mail on Saturday linked the visit of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to Nigeria to an alleged $20million money laundering case against the Chairman and founder of Air Peace, whom the newspaper labelled as a “fugitive.”
According to the British media report, the Prince and his wife who are the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were welcomed to Nigeria by Onyema “a fugitive who has been federally indicted in the United States for allegedly orchestrating a $20million money laundering and bank fraud scheme.”
It was gathered on Saturday exclusively that Onyema, the 59-year-old businessman was a wanted man in the United States, facing multiple charges linked to millions of dollars’ worth of alleged fraud set down in a federal indictment filed in November 2019.
The indictment, obtained by DailyMail.com, accuses Onyema of allegedly “using his status as a prominent business leader and airline executive to launder more than $20million from Nigeria through US bank accounts.”
