U.S. Indictment: Lawyer asks court to prevent extradition of Air Peace boss

A Nigerian Lawyer and human rights activist, Johnmary Jideobi, has instituted a suit in the Federal High Court in Abuja for the enforcement of the fundamental human rights of the embattled Chief Executive Officer of Air Peace, Allen Onyema, who is facing fraud allegations in the United States of America.

He sought seven-point reliefs including a declaration by the court that the federal government and or any of its agencies with prosecutorial powers as represented by Mr Malami who is the respondent ” is/are without powers to abridge the fundamental right of Onyema to freedom of movement as donated by Section 35 of the amended 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria”.

He also wants the court to declare that they “cannot give effect to any extradition request from any country of the world in so far as the ingredients or constituent facts of the indictment and or charges underlying the said request are traceable to or related with or arose from diverse civil aviation contracts entered into by Onyema through his duly registered companies with other duly registered companies in other jurisdictions especially in the United States of America”.

He also sought a court order perpetually barring the Federal Government of Nigeria and or any of its agencies from attempting to or seeking to harass, threaten to arrest, inviting and or arresting the applicant in relation with the civil contract he mutually entered into through his duly registered companies with other aviation companies especially in the United States of America or anything connected thereto.
