Rare video of billionaire Onyema's living room surfaces

A video of Allen Onyeama, the Chairman/CEO of Air Peace Limited doing some domestic chores himself has emerged on social media.

The video was shared by Nigerian football star, Segun Odegbami on his X and Facebook accounts on Saturday, May 11.

In the video, Onyema could be heard saying: “I’m doing it for myself — I love it. I like taking care of my stuff.”

Odegbami said that despite Onyema's ability to outsource the house chores, the entrepreneur decided to carry out the household chores himself.

Odegbami wrote: “Allen Onyema - caught in the act. He is a gentleman to the core, a humanist, a patriot, a successful businessman and an uncommon philanthropist. It is the midnight hour. Ben Adeyileka (the former acting director-general, Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority, NCAA), and I are alone with him in a Lagos apartment - no stewards, no house helps, no servants. Just the 3 of us in conversation and sharing the communion of food ordered from a nearby restaurant.

“We do everything ourselves - bring out plates and cutleries, serve the food, fetch the drinks, clear the mess after, and even trash the litter.

It is fun to behave again like bachelors. At a point, I watch him closely. He cuts an interesting picture. I must capture it for posterity.”

The 1980 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) winner continued: “I pick up my phone and take what must be the shortest and rarest pictures of the great man as he dusts, clears, and cleans the dining table by himself.

I am thinking. How can such a great and wealthy man be so simple and humble at the same time? “Pictures do not lie. Here is Allen Onyema, Chairman of one of Africa’s largest and fast-growing airlines, Air Peace, caught in the act of simplicity and humility”.

Allen Onyema - caught in the act.

He is a gentleman to the core.
Pictures do not lie.
Here is Allen Onyema, Chairman of one of Africa’s largest and fasting growing airlines, Air Peace, caught in the act of simplicity and humility.
